Managing the Search features service

Learn how to enable and disable the Search feature in HCL Compass.

Enable the search feature in the HCL Compass RESTful server Pod:

You can disable the Search application services that are running on a separate pod completely from the HCL Compass Helm chart and enable the search feature to run within the same pod of the HCL Compass RESTful server.

Create a file named search-enabled.yaml and paste the following values. You can configure as many search configurations as necessary. The following example illustrates two search configurations for ports 8983 and 8984.

hcl-compass:
  search:
    withCompass: true                 # Enable Search to configure in the hcl-compass RESTful server Pod.
    ports:
      port1:
        containerPort: 8983           # Set search ports
        protocol: TCP
      port2:
        containerPort: 8984           # Set search ports
        protocol: TCP  
  searchapp1:
    service: false                    # Disable hcl-compass-search-app1 service.
  searchapp2:
    service: false                    # Disable hcl-compass-search-app2 service.
  service:
    enabled:
      search: true                    # Enable Search service.

Add -f search-enabled.yaml to the helm install or helm upgrade command.

Disabling the search feature service from the HCL Compass Helm chart

You can disable the search feature services from the HCL Compass Helm chart and install HCL Compass with just the hcl-compass RESTful server feature without the Full Search feature:

Create a file named search-disabled.yaml and paste in the following contents:

hcl-compass:
  search:
    withCompass: false
  service:
    enabled:
      search: false
  searchapp1:
    service: false
  searchapp2:
    service: false

Add -f search-disabled.yaml to the helm install or helm upgrade command.

Installing the SSL certificate

Create a new folder named /path/to/your/keystore that contains the keystore.p12 file for installing an SSL certificate on HCL Compass pod container:
```
$ mkdir /path/to/your/keystore
```

Add the keystore.p12 file to the /path/to/your/keystore folder to a configMap named keystore-file.

$ kubectl create cm keystore-file --from-file /path/to/your/keystore/keystore.p12 --namespace [namespace_name]

Check to ensure that the keystore-file.configMap file has been created and that it contains the keystore.p12 file.
```
$ kubectl get cm keystore-file -o yaml --namespace [namespace_name]
```
Create a file named ssl.yaml. Set the SSL password, key-aliasMount and configMapName to keystore-file
```
hcl-compass:
  ssl:
    enabled: true
    password: ""
    keyAlias:  1
    configMapName: keystore-file
```
