How can I suppress messages from Chronos in log.nsf?

Please complete the details below then remove this line:

Domino/Notes Version: 12.0.2FP2
Operating System: Windows
Client (Notes, Nomad Web, Nomad Mobile, Android/iOS, browser version):Firefox

Problem/Query:

How can I suppress the detailed messages from chronos listing every database it is indexing? Every hour it starts with “Chronos: Performing hourly full text indexing”. But then I get two entries for every database it indexes, like

Chronos: Full text indexing documents in xyz.nsf
Chronos: 0 documents (0 bytes) indexed in xyz.nsf

Finally there is the “Chronos: Full text indexer terminating”

How can I suppress the detailed messages only leaving the start and end of the chronos?

Thank You.

Hello Stefan,

Kindly check this notes.ini parameter “Log_Update=” as it specifies the level of detail of Indexer events displayed at the server console and in the log file:

0 - Records when the Indexer starts and shuts down.

1 - Records when the Indexer starts and shuts down and when the Indexer updates views and full text indexes for specific databases.

2 - Records when the Indexer starts and shuts down and when the Indexer updates views and full text indexes for specific databases. Also records the names of views the Indexer is updating

Have a good day and keep safe!

There was no parameter Log_Update set, so the default should have been 0. However I added the parameter, but it does not make any difference, Chronos still lists all databases where it is updating the Full text index.

Any other suggestions?

Regards, Stefan

Have you try restarting the Domino server?

Yes, the server has been restarted several times. The suggested parameter (Log_Update) was not set in the first place. According to the information I have this should then default to a value of 0.

We have several other servers, none of them produces all those Chronos messages. There we see only the entries “Chronos: Performing hourly full text indexing” and “Chronos: Full text indexter terminating”.
