# CollectChildFullness

Instructs the Distributed Index Handler to send GetStatus actions to its child servers to collect fullness information. Use this setting when the Distributed Index Handler is running in non-mirror mode to distribute documents dynamically across a bank of child servers based on user-specified document limits. Use the GetChildStatusMode parameter to determine when the Distributed Index Handler sends the GetStatus actions.

If `CollectChildFullness` is set to `true`, the Distributed Index Handler aggregates the fullness information from its child servers, and reports the results in the `<FULL>` and `<FULL_RATIO>` tags when it receives a GetStatus action.

If the Distributed Index Handler has no information from its child servers (For example, when `CollectChildFullness` is set to `false`) then the Distributed Index Handler reports that it is full.

Use the `MaxDocumentCount` option in the `[Server]` section of the Content component configuration file to set the number of documents that the child Content components accept before returning `<FULL>`.

Type: | Boolean
Default: | False
