Add a content source for search (Office SharePoint Server 2007 for Search)

You add a content source for search when you need to:

• Crawl different types of content.

• Crawl some content on different schedules than other content.

• Limit or increase the quantity of content that is crawled.

Shared services administrators can create up to 500 content sources in each Shared Services Provider (SSP) and each content source can contain up to 500 start addresses. To keep administration as simple as possible, you should create only as many content sources as you need.

Hinweis

Crawling content by using a particular content source is sometimes called "crawling the content source."

Content sources provide the following information to the crawler during a crawl:

• Type of content you want to crawl. The following table lists the types of content sources that can be crawled.

  This type of content source	Includes this type of content
  SharePoint sites	SharePoint sites from the same farm or different Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007, Windows SharePoint Services 3.0, or Office SharePoint Server 2007 für Search farms SharePoint sites from Microsoft Office SharePoint Portal Server 2003 or Microsoft Windows SharePoint Services 2.0 farms Hinweis: Unlike crawling SharePoint sites on Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007, Windows SharePoint Services 3.0, or Office SharePoint Server 2007 für Search, the crawler cannot automatically crawl all subsites in a site collection from previous versions of SharePoint Products and Technologies. Therefore, when crawling SharePoint sites from previous versions, you must specify the URL of each top-level site and each subsite that you want to crawl. Sites listed in the Site Directory of Microsoft Office SharePoint Portal Server 2003 farms are crawled when the portal site is crawled. For more information about the Site Directory, see About the Site Directory (https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=88227&clcid=0x409).
  Web sites	Other Web content in your organization not found on SharePoint sites Content on Web sites on the Internet
  File shares	Content on file shares within your organization
  Exchange public folders	Microsoft Exchange Server content
  Lotus Notes	E-mail messages stored in Lotus Notes databases Hinweis: Unlike all other types of content sources, the Lotus Notes content source option does not appear in the user interface until you have installed and configured the appropriate prerequisite software. For more information, see Configure Office SharePoint Server Search to crawl Lotus Notes (Office SharePoint Server 2007 for Search).

  Hinweis

  You can only crawl one type of content per content source. That is, you can create a content source that contains URLs for SharePoint sites and another that contains URLs for file shares, but you cannot create a single content source that contains URLs to both SharePoint sites and file shares.

• Start address from which to start crawling.

• Behavior to use when crawling — for example, how deep to crawl from the start address, or how many server hops to allow. For more information, see Limit or increase the quantity of content that is crawled (Office SharePoint Server 2007 for Search).

• Crawling schedule. For more information, see Determine when to crawl your content (Office SharePoint Server 2007 for Search).

To create a content source, you can perform the following procedures:

• Add a content source to crawl SharePoint sites, Web sites, file shares, or Microsoft Exchange public folders (Office SharePoint Server 2007 for Search).

• Add a content source to crawl Lotus Notes (Office SharePoint Server 2007 for Search)
