Index Data Storage
This section explains where SearchBlox stores its index data by default and how to move that storage location to a different folder, drive, or path on your system.
Storing Index Data
By default, all search index data generated by OpenSearch is stored in the following location within your SearchBlox installation.
<SEARCHBLOX_INSTALLATION_PATH>/opensearch/data

Windows path as an Example
To change the index folder to any other drive or path, make the following changes:
- Go to
<SEARCHBLOX_INSTALLATION_PATH>/opensearch/config. - Open the opensearch.yml file in a code editor such as Notepad.
- Add the following path in the
path.datafield on the first line:
path.data: D:/dataindex - Specify the location where you want the index to be stored. The path can be on the same drive, another location, another drive, or a mapped drive.
- Restart OpenSearch and SearchBlox. After restarting, all indexed data will be stored in
D:/dataindexor the path specified in opensearch.yml.
