Importing Endeca CAS Data

Some Times in our Local Machine/SIT Machine  where less infrastructure is maintained, Indexing takes lot of time, when it fails in the Middle Due to the Network issue or Endeca Script Service Fail or Unknowingly stopped the Server. Then you have to wait for another couple of hours for indexing. Follow the Below Approach, so that your time is saved.

 Step 1:

go to C:\Endeca\CAS\11.1.0\bin

and Execute below command

recordstore-cmd.bat read-baseline -a ATGen-data -f C:\Endeca\CAS\11.1.0\bin\ATGen.xml

where -a tag defines your Record Store here Data to be imported. -f defines the File where you need to store data from the CAS.

It will take some minutes based on the data Size, but not the Actual time it takes for the Indexing from productCatalogSimpleindexingAdmin.

Once it is done, follow the same process for the Dimensions also

recordstore-cmd.bat read-baseline -a ATGen-dimvals -f C:\Endeca\CAS\11.1.0\bin\ATGen-dim.xml

It will take very less time .

Then go to C:\Endeca\Apps\ATGen\test_data\baseline

Step 2:

Copy both the Xml’s and Rename to ATGen.xml to rs_baseline_data.xml

ATGen-dim.xml to rs_baseline_dimvals.xml

Step 3:

Then go to C:\Endeca\PlatformServices\11.1.0\utilities

execute the below command

gzip.exe C:\Endeca\Apps\ATGen\test_data\baseline\rs_baseline_data.xml

gzip.exe C:\Endeca\Apps\ATGen\test_data\baseline\rs_baseline_dimvals.xml

After this command execution it changes to the Below Format

rs_baseline_data.xml.gz

rs_baseline_dimvals.xml.gz

Step 4:

Once it is Changed go to C:\Endeca\Apps\ATGen\control and Execute the Command 

load_baseline_test_data.bat

It will load the Data to the RecordStores.

Using CAS install at C:\Endeca\CAS\11.1.0

Loading C:\Endeca\Apps\ATGen\control\..\test_data\baseline\rs_baseline_data.xml.gz into ATGen-data

Wrote 27968 records.

Loading C:\Endeca\Apps\ATGen\control\..\test_data\baseline\rs_baseline_dimvals.xml.gz into ATGen-dimvals

Wrote 104 records.

Once it is Done !!!

 Trigger BaseLineindex.

Step 5:

baseline_update.bat

Then indexing is complete . Happy Time Saving !!!

note: This Can be followed as much time you need, when you are getting any CAS related Issued During the CAS import or Baseline Index Restart CAS.
