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.

steps:
