Joe, Keep thinking like that, someone's bound to get jealous!
It is a seriously good idea, mate. I've had sync search take up to 6 hours on my systems, so I do it in inverse proportionality to how much development I've been doing and never more often than once a quarter, and then only during very slow user periods, like overnight, during holiday weekends. Of course it's a 24 x 7 shop, so I can't predict the weather. I do have the luxury of being in charge of the system, so I know exactly what changes are occurring. Perhaps you could submit this as an Enhancement Request on the BMC website (if that function is currently working properly).

Sometimes after an exercise of patching an application after bug fixing or an enhancement of an existing Remedy application where you have already undergone the process of syncronizing the search database prior to an enhancement, to reflect these changes to show up in the Related Workflow, we have to re-run the Sync Search Database. I wonder how hard it would be to enhance this feature where the Remedy Administrator has the capability to 'highlight' a form where the changes have taken place, and to run the Sync Search Database operation on only the affected forms.. It would not just significantly save time but also spare the database and the AR Server the hit it experiences during this operation. Just a thought that occurs to me everytime I run this operation when I know the update I would get after the operation would actually affect only a single form or a few forms... Today I ran this operation when the only change I had done since the previous run was adding a new form which had only 15 active links on it and another active link related to this form from another calling form.. If such a feature was available, this operation might have taken not more than 10 minutes or so while it took me nearly 3.5 hours with its current design... I wonder if this is already on the plate for a forthcoming AR Server version or a patch??
