Viewing System Indexing details via Spy Remote

The Spy view available on various system indexing components can be useful to superusers to see system indexing diagnostic information, providing statistics at every level. For example, you can see global indexing statistics such as the total number of attempts, average execution time, and which operation took the longest amount of time to complete. For statistics at a more granular level, you can look at the Spy statistics for an individual indexer component to see that last time it attempted and how indexing occurred.
Prerequisites:
  • Connection to your Supervisor station and its subordinate stations
  • SystemDbService and SystemIndexingService are already installed and configured
  • You have successfully executed system indexing operations on the Supervisor and its subordinate stations.
Perform the following steps:
  1. In the Workbench Nav tree or Property Sheet view, in the Supervisor station, expand Services > SystemDbService > SystemIndexService and perform either of the following actions:
    • Right-click LocalSystemIndexer and click Views > Spy Local to view system indexing statistics on the local station.
    • Right-click on GlobalNiagaraSystemIndexer and click Views > Spy Remote to view system indexing statistics on the subordinate stations.
  2. Scroll down to see available statistics on the indexing operations, similar to those shown here.
