About this guide
1RISSoverview
This section introduces HP Reference Information Storage System (RISS) and Reference Information
Manager (RIM) from a user perspective. It introduces RISS key concepts and provides an overview of RIM.
RISS and RIM
RISS is a fault-tolerant, secure system of ha rdware and software that archives files and email messages
for your organization, and lets you search for archived documents.
• Automatic, a
organization meet regulatory requirements.
• Interactive data querying to search for and retrieve archived data according to various criteria.
The RISS Web Interface allows you to use your web browser to search for documents archived
on the system
Interface"onpage15and"Quer y expression syntax and matching"onpage33.
To interact with the system, you can use the following RIM applications:

The RISS Web Interface is available to all users. The RISS Outlook Interface and RISS Lotus Notes
Interface are independent customer options. Depending on the configuration of your system, each
may or may not be available to you.

server. View and work with archived email messages. See the HP ReferenceInformation Manager for Domino User Guide whichisincludedontheHP
Reference Information Manager for Domino option documentation CD — it is
also available on h
ttp://www.hp.com.
Understanding document archiving
RISS archives files and em ail messages associated with registered users. With RIM, you can find and
retrieve archived documents to which you have access.
Archiving involves physically storing copies of a document (file or email message), but also virtually
storing it in one or more repositories. A repository is an abstract data store, which is a virtual collection
of documents associated with routing rules (for storing) and user access control lists (for retrieving):
• Documents associated with a given user are archived to a given set of repositories. User-repository
associations are defined by routing rules.
• A user has query and retrieval a ccess to a given set of repositories. This is controlled by access
control lists associated with each repository.
Most users have query and retrieval access to only their own documents, which are archived in their
individual repositories. The system automatically archives, in your individual repository, all email
messages associated with your email account; that is, all messages you send or receive.
In addition to being automatically routed to your individual repository, your email is probably also
routed to one or more other repositories established by your company or organization. For example, a
User Guide
11
company audit repository may be used to keep track of all company email. Some users have access
to other repositories, besides their own. For example, your manager or supervisor may have access to
your repository.
Understanding searching and document indexing
You can search for any documents a rchived in your repository (or any other repositories to which you
have access),
your query is c
whether the documents are email messages or files. When you search for a document,
hecked against an index of words that is updated each time a document is archived.
Indexing the c
searching. Separators (such as punctuation) between words are ignored during indexing. Note that there
is a time delay from when files are archived to when they are indexed. Documents archived less than an
hour ago may or may not appear in query or search results depending on the system’s configuration.
You can search the contents of a document only if the contents have been indexed. You can search for
other kinds o
ontents of a document involves cataloging the document words to prepare them for later
f files only by using external identifying information.
Indexed document types
In addition to email messages, the following files are indexed:
• Plain text files
• Rich text files (.rtf)
• HTML (HyperText Markup Language) files
• Files used by the following Microsoft Office programs: Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Access
• PDF (Portable Document Format) files viewed with Adobe Acrobat Reader
• Zip files
• Embedded messages (RFC 822 messages)
NOTE:
Email message formatting has no b earing on indexing. Only the words you see in your email client are
indexing c andidates. Invisible source-code words, such as HTML markup tags, are ignored.
NOTE:
For zip files and embedded messages, the content inside the files is expanded and indexed.
Message MIME types (advanced users)
An email message can contain message parts of possibly different MIME (Multipurpose Internet Mail
Extensions) Content-Types. The following Content-Types are indexed and each corresponds to one of
the indexed document types:
• text/xml
• text/plain
• text/html
• application/rtf
• application/msword
• application/vnd.ms-excel
• application/vnd.ms-powerpoint
• application/msaccess
• application/pdf
12RISS overview
• application/zip
An email message that is entirely plain text, not MIME, is indexed. Also, if an email message has been
attached to another email message, the attached email message is not indexed.

The Search for field is available when using the Simple Search and Advanced Search pages. Use this
field to search for specific words in a document (email messages or files).
The query syntax allowed is described in "Query expression syntax and matching" on page 33.
You can enter simple words, words with wildcards, or a more sophisticated query involving Boolean
expressions or word sequences.
NOTE:
To narrow the search to the documents you want to find, make your search text as specificaspossible. In
general, the more information provided in the Search for field, the narrower the search. If the field is
blank (empty), all documents within the specified date range of the query are returned.
Searching indexed contents
The Search for field is checked for a match against the indexed contents of documents.
• For email messages, the Search for field for words in the message body, but not in other
message fields such as Subject, From, or To. In addition, the Search for field applies to message
attachments that are indexed document files.
• For files, the Search for field applies only to indexed d ocument files. Other types of files do not
have indexed contents so their contents cannot be searched.

Saving quer y or search results
After you submit a search, you can save the results. The search results are saved for two weeks and
then deleted.
22
RISS Web Interface
NOTE:
Any search results you saved using the RISS Web Interface are deleted after two weeks. The web
interface also contains a button for manually deleting saved query results
Deleting search results does not delete the items on the RISS. The actual items remain on the RISS
according to the retention period set by your administrator .
If you need to save the results longer than two weeks, consider copying the results to a quarantine
repository. A quarantine repository allows you to save search results for an infinite retention period. For
more information, see "Copying saved results to a quarantine repository" on page 27.
If the search locates a large number of documents, saving the results is useful. For example, if you are
completing a large audit query, you can save the results while the quer y is still processing and then
retrieve all the results at a later time.
When you save query results of a large search, the query is resubmitted as a background process that
retrieves all results, no matter how many. Because the query runs in the background, you can continue to
use the RISS Web Interface (for example, by submitting other queries).
To save results:
1. Display the Query Results page by completing one of the following tasks:
•Submitasimple(see"Completing simple searches" on page 17) or advanced search (see
"Completing advanced searches" on page 18).
•
Submit a search from previously saved criteria (see "Accessing saved criteria" on page 26).

Copying saved results to a quarantine repository
You can copy items listed in the saved query results to another destination repository called a quarantine
repository. If the results are quarantined, the search results are not deleted from the database and
have an infinite retention period. This feature is useful for comp liance purposes or if you need to save
your results for more than two weeks.

Audit log repositories are not available to all users. Users with access to an audit log repository can
choose the audit log repository when they select a repository to search. If the audit log repository does
not appear in the Where to Search list when you specify search criteria, you do not have access. For
access to the audit log repository, submit a request to your administrator.
The audit log repository provides a method for creating a surveillance system log. This is useful for
demonstrating your company is adhering to surveillance processes. You can complete either a simple or
advanced search when searching the repository. If you need to search for multiple criteria, complete
an advanced search.
NOTE:
An email search from an audit log repository will produce no results; you need to do a document search.

therefore, what words you can search for.

Letters and digits defined
All letters and digits are word characters. What RISS considers a letter or digit depends on the character
set encoding used. For US ASCII encoding, letters are uppercase a nd lowercase English letters (A-Z, a-z).
For ISO 8859-1 (Latin-1) encoding, used for Western European languages, accented letters are included.
Most ideographic characters, such as those used in Asian lan guages, are also considered letters.
Whatever the language and encoding used for a particular document (file or email message), RISS maps
encoded characters to the Unicode 2.0 standard. The Unicode 2.0 standard is then used to determine if
a given character is a letter or a digit (or neither):
• A letter is any Unicode character in one of the following Unicode categories: Ll (lowercase letter),
Lu(uppercaseletter),Lt(titlecaseletter),Lm(modifier let ter) , or Lo (other letter).
• A digit is any Unicode character whose Unicode name contains the word DIGIT, provided it is not
in the range \u2000 (en quad = en space) through \u2FFF (ideographic description - future).
Letters and digits in files
Although all letters and digits are word characters, their treatment in files (including email message
attachments) depends on the character encoding used. You can search for any words in email message
bodies and headers, regardless of the encoding.

Matching words
Matching words is not case-sensitive: ca t, Cat, cAt,andCAT all match. Corresponding uppercase and
lowercase letters, such as A and a, are treated the same in a ll respects.
There are two kinds of query words: words that contain occurrences of one or both of the wildcard
characters * and ?, and literal words that do not contain wildcards.
• Literal words that do not contain wildcards
• Words containing occurrences of one or both wildcard characters * and ?
A literal word in a query expression matches the same word, character for character (case ignored), in
an archived document. A word with wildcard characters (* or ?) matches a document word in the same
way, character by character, except for the following:
• A ? matches any single character in a document word. For example, b??t matches beat, beet,
boat, blot, best, bust, bout,andsoon.
• An * matches any sequence of characters in a document word, including a sequence of no
characters. For example, f*t matches the document words foot, feet, fit, fault,andft;andf*
matches any document word beginning with f.
You can use any number of wildcard characters (* or ?) in a quer y word, but you cannot use a wildcard
at the beginning of a query word. An error message results. For example, *ion is not a valid query.
Matching similar words
Topics include:
•
Fuzzy words, page 36
•
Measuring word similarity, page 36
User Guide
35
Fuzzy words
You can search for document words that are textually similar to a given literal query word (that is, one
containing no wildcards). To do this, append a tilde (~) character to the word, creating a fuzzy word.
For example, the fuzzy word define~ matches the similar words defined and definite,butdoesnot
match defining
The edit distance (also called Levenshtein distance) between two words is the number of single-character
operations (deletion, replacement, or insertion) required to change one word into the other word.
For example, the edit distance between define and pine is three: two deletions (d and e)andone
replacement (f by p). The distance between define and definite is also three (e replaced by i; te inserted).
Thesearchengineconsidersdefine more similar to definite than to pine,eventhoughtheeditdistances
are the same (three), because the edit distance (number of character changes) is compared to the word
length (of the shorter of the query and document words). Two words are closer, for querying purposes, if
it takes less to change one word into the other word relative to their lengths.
The similarity ratio used by the search engine is d/min(query, doc), where d is the edit distance, min is a
function that returns the lesser of its arguments, and query and doc are the lengths of the query word and
document word, respectively. A fuzzy word matches a document word if this ratio is no more than 0.5.
Examples:
Words ComparedSimilarity RatioMatch ?
define, definite3/min(6, 8) = 3/6 = 0.5
define,pine3/min(6,4)=3/4=0.75
yes
no(0.75>0.5)
Matching word sequences
You can use word sequences to find documents with words that occur in a specified order and are
separated by a specified maximum distance.
Topics in
•
•
Simple word sequences
To search for an ordered sequence of words, use a simple word sequence, which is a list of literal
query words (no wildcards) separated by spaces (or other separators) and enclosed in quotes ("). A
document matches a simple word sequence if all words occur in the document in the same order, with
no intervening words.
For example, the sequence "like a rolling stone" does not match a document with the text like alarge rolling stone because of the intervening word large.
Proximity word sequences
You can use simple word sequences to search for words sepa rated by separators but not by other
words. To search for document words that are in an ordered sequence, but might be separated by other
words
To write a proximity word sequence, use the same syntax as a simple word sequence, but append a tilde
(~) character to the second quote, and follow that with a numeric p roximity value. The proximity value

words of the sequence. A document matches a proximity word sequence if all words occur in the
document in the sa me order, with at most N intervening words, where N is the proximity value.
For example, the sequence "bird garden stone"~3 matches any document that has these three
wordsinthisorder,withbird and garden separated by no more than three words, a nd garden and stone
separated by no more than three words. This sequence matches a document with the text abirdintherose garden is near a stone because there are at most three words between successive sequence words.
This sequence also matches abirdgardenwithastonefor the same reason.

Boolean o perators must be surrounded by one or more separators, typically white space. For example,
the query peas&&carrots is not equivalent to the query peas && carrots; peas&&carrots is a
single word (& isawordcharacter).
Negation operators (- and !) are exceptions to this rule. They must be preceded by a separator, but they
need not be followed by a separator. For example, carrot-a6 is a single query word, but carrot
-a6,likecarrot (- a6), is equivalent to the Boolean expression carrot AND (NOTa6).
