DSIndex command
•
Large DocuShare sites can take many hours to index. We recommend that you run the dsindex
command during a slow use period, such as late at night or on the weekend.

Set defaults on object properties
•
If a DocuShare customer has an email address such as company.com, then set the default email
address user property to company.com. This will save the administrator time by not having to type
in individual user email addresses.

VDF customization
•
Do not make customizations directly to VDF template files. Instead, create a local directory, such
DSHOME/Amber/templates/Local or DSHOME/Amber/templates/en (or fr, es, de), to hold all of
your VDF template customizations. This prevents having to recreate all of your vdf customizations
if a future service pack replaces dslib.vdf.
