If you have a set of records that are not expected to change over time
you may can build your database without record IDs.
This indexing method uses less space than the other methods and
is simple to use.
</p><p>
To use this method, you simply omit the <code class="literal">recordId</code> entry
for the group of files that you index. To add a set of records you use
<code class="literal">zebraidx</code> with the <code class="literal">update</code> command. The
<code class="literal">update</code> command will always add all of the records that it
encounters to the index - whether they have already been indexed or
not. If the set of indexed files change, you should delete all of the
index files, and build a new index from scratch.
</p><p>
Consider a system in which you have a group of text files called
<code class="literal">simple</code>.
That group of records should belong to a <acronym class="acronym">Z39.50</acronym> database called
<code class="literal">textbase</code>.
The following <code class="literal">zebra.cfg</code> file will suffice:
</p><p>
</p><pre class="screen">
profilePath: /usr/local/idzebra/tab
attset: bib1.att
simple.recordType: text
simple.database: textbase
</pre><p>
</p><p>
Since the existing records in an index can not be addressed by their
IDs, it is impossible to delete or modify records when using this method.
