About the Verity utilities

ColdFusion includes several Verity utilities to diagnose and manage your collections. These tools include the mkvdk, rcvdk, rck2, and vspider utilities.

The following table describes the relationship between the major Verity utilities and the corresponding cfcollection, cfsearch, and cfindex ColdFusion tags (the cfcollection tag operates on the entire collection, whereas the cfindex tag operates on records within a collection):

Note:   Collections created with ColdFusion and those created externally using native Verity tools differ in structure. When performing operations on Verity collections created with ColdFusion, you may be required to include the full path to the collection. For more information, see "Collection structure and ColdFusion".

For more information, see Chapter 6, "Troubleshooting Collections with Verity Utilities".
