How to Increase search results limits

My manager wants me to increase the numbers of items that can be displayed when doing a query in EV. He gives me the article on creating webapp.ini file and wnats to add the following. Is this the correct way to accomplish this? Since this references federated searches wouldn't think that this is what I would need to adjust to increase number of items. Is this correct?

 

FederatedSearchMaxItems

Limit the global number of items that a federated search can return, default is 1000, means 10 pages

 

  • Hello,

    Federated Search is used when you search across multiple index volumes, such as 32 bits and 64 bits index volumes or journal archives. Normally, for a regular user, you could try configuring ShowAllMaxResults to a higher value (An integer. The maximum number of search results to display. The default is 500).

  • If he's referring to the web search page, an easy way to get more items per page is to use:

    http://evservername/enterprisevault/search.asp?advanced as the url.

    Putting the ?advanced in there will let you choose to get 500 results per page, among other things.
