Before you can begin using remote search service, you must
create three new content sources, one for the Web Content Manager,
one for your portal site, and one for JCR search.
Before you begin
Create the new search collection for the remote search service.
For detailed instructions about how to create new search collections,
see Creating new search collections. Important: The steps that you used to create the JCR search collection in Setting up a JCR search collection also included instructions
about how to create the new JCR content source. If you created the
JCR content source immediately after creating the JCR search collection,
you do not need to create the JCR content source again.
Procedure
- If you did not manually create a new JCR content source
when you created the JCR search collection, create the JCR content
source now. For detailed instructions about how to create JCR content
sources, see Setting up a JCR search collection.

site by completing the following steps:
- Click the name of the search collection that you created
in Creating new search collections.

site. The portal URL is completed by default.

port.
