About the Indexer worker node

The access events and filesystem metadata that are collected from the storage repositories are periodically uploaded to the Indexer node. You can choose to have multiple indexers for load balancing purposes. Each storage repository can have exactly one Indexer node associated with it. The indexer performs the following functions:

  • Uses the data from the collector process and scanner to create index files.

  • Uses the index files to generate report output and service queries from the Management Console.
