index export start
The index export start command exports the search index to a desired
output location in *.zip file format. The *.zip
file contains a *.txt file with pipe delimiters and double quotes as
text qualifiers. The output file name corresponds to the name of the search index, followed
by the time stamp.
- For Legacy indexes, this command exports only the fields marked as Store when the index is created.
- For Clustered indexes, this command exports all index fields.
- The line break type is CRLF for Windows and LF for non-Windows exported files.
