2. System Requirements

    (1) Disk space

      You should have at least 5 MB of free disk space on the server on which you will be installing DeepSearch. If you do not have enough disk space, the installation will fail or the program will not run properly. You need at least 4 MB of disk space for the application and supporting files. The required swap space for indexing & searching is typically 30% to 50%, up to a maximum of 200%, of the size of all documents to be indexed and searched. At the end of the indexing process, the size of the index database is typically 30% or less of the size of all indexed documents.

      Tip
      Namo DeepSearch 3.0 offers two indexers: a standard indexer and an advanced indexer. With the advanced indexer, search capabilities in the Korean language are considerably improved. If you have enough disk space on your server, you can install both standard and advanced indexers and select one of them to use from the Current Indexer option in the Options-Indexing section of the DeepSearch administrator page. Installing the advanced indexer requires an additional 28 MB of hard disk space. Therefore, make sure that you have enough disk space before installing the advanced indexer. You will still be able to run a basic Korean-language search even if you don't install the advanced indexer.

    (2) Server platform

      DeepSearch may be installed on a server running Windows 95/98/NT/2000, Linux, or Solaris. DeepSearch is compatible with all Web server software.

    (3) Telnet and FTP access required (Unix versions only)

      In order to install Namo DeepSearch on a server running Solaris or Linux, you need to upload all of the DeepSearch setup files to the server before you begin installing. To do this, you need to access the server using FTP or telnet. You also need telnet access to send the necessary Unix commands for installing DeepSearch to the server.

      Namo DeepSearch is a CGI program that requires the information entered by your site visitors to be received by the server so that the information can be processed. Therefore, to install and manage DeepSearch, you need to know the CGI URL and CGI directory of your DeepSearch server, and you need to have "read" and "execute" permissions set correctly on the CGI directory. You will not be able to use Namo DeepSearch if these requirements are not satisfied. If you do not have the correct CGI permissions set, ask your Web server administrator how to proceed.

3. Installation

[Installing Namo DeepSearch]

    Installation Procedure for Solaris or Linux
     

    1. Copy the setup program that you downloaded from our Web site (http://www.namo.com) to your Web server using any FTP program.
    2. Connect to the server using telnet and use the following commands to extract the compressed setup program:
           gzip -d deepsearch*
           tar -xvf deepsearch*tar
      Since the files were compressed twice, you also need to extract them twice.
    3. Switch to the inst_temp directory and run the setup program. Enter the appropriate values for all settings.
    4. If the installation was successfully completed, use the dstart command in the DeepSearch directory to start the DeepSearch service. Then, in the address field of your Web browser, enter:
           http://[DeepSearch install URL]/[CGI-URL]/mclient.cgi
           (example: http://www.namo.com/cgi-bin/mclient.cgi)
      to check that DeepSearch is working properly.

4. Administration

    Indexing
    In order to deliver search results as quickly as possible, a search engine needs to organize your data by indexing it in advance. It is recommended to index as often as possible. When you run the DeepSearch service for the first time after the installation is competed, you should run index manually. Afterwards, you can always instantly index the data by clicking Index Now on the DeepSearch admin page (madmin.cgi). You can also schedule automatic indexing for a particular time of day. 

    Managing DeepSearch
    Search engines can frequently require maintenance. However, you can easily manage all DeepSearch's functions via any Web browser, as long as you have access to the Internet. DeepSearch offers an administrator interface in an ordinary Web page. Just enter

    http://[DeepSearch install URL]/[CGI-URL]/madmin.cgi
    (example: http://www.namo.com/cgi-bin/madmin.cgi)

    in the address bar of your Web browser to access the Admin page. If your DeepSearch server runs Windows, you can also right-click on the DeepSearch icon on the task bar and choose Administrator Page.

    For more detailed information, please refer to "Administration" section in the DeepSearch manual.
