NAME

       doveadm-fts - Manipulate the Full Text Search (FTS) index

SYNOPSIS

       doveadm [-Dv] fts command [OPTIONS] [ARGUMENTS]

DESCRIPTION

       The doveadm fts COMMANDS can be used to manipulate the Full Text Search (FTS) index.

OPTIONS

       Global doveadm(1) options:

       -D     Enables verbosity and debug messages.

       -o setting=value
              Overrides  the  configuration  setting from /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf and from the userdb with the
              given value.  In order to override multiple settings, the -o  option  may  be  specified  multiple
              times.

       -v     Enables verbosity, including progress counter.

       This command uses by default the output formatter flow (without the key= prefix).

       Command specific options:

       -A     If  the  -A  option is present, the command will be performed for all users.  Using this option in
              combination with system users from userdb { driver = passwd  }  is  not  recommended,  because  it
              contains also users with a lower UID than the one configured with the first_valid_uid setting.

              When   the   SQL   userdb   module   is   used   make  sure  that  the  iterate_query  setting  in
              /etc/dovecot/dovecot-sql.conf.ext matches your  database  layout.   When  using  the  LDAP  userdb
              module,  make  sure  that  the  iterate_attrs and iterate_filter settings in /etc/dovecot/dovecot-
              ldap.conf.ext match your LDAP schema.  Otherwise doveadm(1) will be unable  to  iterate  over  all
              users.

       -F file
              Execute  the command for all the users in the file.  This is similar to the -A option, but instead
              of getting the list of users from the userdb, they  are  read  from  the  given  file.   The  file
              contains one username per line.

       -S socket_path
              The  option's argument is either an absolute path to a local UNIX domain socket, or a hostname and
              port (hostname:port), in order to connect a remote host via a TCP socket.

              This allows an administrator to execute doveadm(1) mail commands through the given socket.

       -u user/mask
              Run the command only for the given user.  It's also possible to use '*' and '?' wildcards (e.g. -u
              *@example.org).
              When  neither  the  -A  option, nor the -F file option, nor the -u user was specified, the command
              will be executed with the environment of the currently logged in user.

ARGUMENTS

       namespace
              The name of a namespace, e.g. the name of the shared namespace.  When no namespace was given,  the
              user's private namespace will be used.

COMMANDS

   fts optimize
       doveadm fts optimize [-u user|-A|-F file] [-S socket_path] [namespace]

       Optimize  the  full  text search index.  This is also done automatically by the full text search engines,
       but this enforces it to happen.

   fts rescan
       doveadm fts rescan [-u user|-A|-F file] [-S socket_path] [namespace]

       Scan what mails exist in the full text  search  index  and  compare  those  to  what  actually  exist  in
       mailboxes.   This  removes  mails  from the index that have already been expunged and makes sure that the
       next doveadm index will index all the missing mails (if any). Note that currently most  FTS  backends  do
       not  implement  this properly, but instead they delete all the FTS indexes. This may change in the future
       versions.
