Configuring Microsoft Search Server 2008
In my previous piece, I have demonstrated the process of deploying Microsoft Search Server 2008. To continue the process, we need to configure the search server. Below are the required and optional configurable items:
1. Required
| Search Index Server | The server that will provide search indexing services. |
| Default Account for Services | Serves as the service account for the search service, the Help search service, and the Web application identity of the search administration site. |
| Search Center Account | It is used as the application pool account for the Search Center site. |
| Search Contact E-Mail | The e-mail address of the search server administrator. |
Below is the illustration.
2. Optional
| Search Center Site | An option whether to create a Search Center site. |
| Index File Location | The path on the index server where the index will be located. |
| Search Services Administration Account | It is used for Web services, communication between services, and timer jobs in surrogate to the default account for services. |
| Database for Search Administrative Settings | The database used to store query logs and administrative settings associated with the search service. |
| Search Service Account | This is used as the log on identity of the Search Service surrogate to the default account for services. |
| Database for Search Service | The database used to store search-related data that frequently changes. |
| Help Search Service Account | It is used as the log on identity of the Help Search Service surrogate to the default account for services. |
| Database for the Help Search Service | The database used to store data for the service that indexes Help content. |
| SSL for Web Services | An option whether to use Secure Sockets Layer to help protect communications to and from servers using Web Services. |
Below is the illustration.
Upon confirmation of the settings we have defined, the configuration process will proceed.
After the configuration process, a Welcome to Microsoft Search Server 2008 page will be displayed.
From the welcome page, we could now navigate to the Search Administration page.
Thank you very much.
