# RegenerateParametricIndex

Regenerate modified parametric fields without reindexing IDOL Server. Set `RegenerateParametricIndex` to `True` if you want to define ParametricType fields or add extra ParametricType fields but have already indexed content into IDOL Server. This allows IDOL Server to generate the files that it requires to internally identify ParametricType fields at startup, so that you need only to restart IDOL Server to be able to use ParametricType fields, rather than having to reindex all your data.

After the parametric index has been regenerated, Micro Focus recommends that you disable `RegenerateParametricIndex` again to avoid wasting time by regenerating the parametric index every time you restart IDOL Server.

NOTE: You can also regenerate the ParametricType index without restarting the server by using the DREREGENERATE index action.
