# ValidateOptions

Options to use when running validation on the server. Set `ValidateOptions` to one of the following values:

`0` | Perform normal subindex validation, finding all errors.
`1` | Fail any subindex validation as soon as one error is detected, rather than trying to find all errors.
`2` | Shut down the server if validation of a subindex fails. You cannot restart it until you change `ValidateOptions`, or delete the `main/validation.log` file.
`3` | Apply both options `1` and `2`.

You can also set ValidateOptions for the DREVALIDATE index action.
