# Check Indexing Status

You can check whether the DIH has successfully indexed data into the connected Content components by running the following action:

    http://DIHhost:ACIport/action=IndexerGetStatus

where,

- `DIHhost` is the IP address or host name of the of the machine on which DIH is installed.
- `ACIport` is the port that you use to send ACI actions to the DIH (set in the Port parameter in the `[Server]` section of the DIH configuration file).

The IndexerGetStatus action displays the status of the Content index queue.

## Example

The following example shows the action response from the DIH when you send an IndexerGetStatus action to the DIH after a `DREADD` index action:

    <autnresponse>
    <action>INDEXERGETSTATUS</action>
    <response>SUCCESS</response>
    <responsedata>
    <item>
       <id>1</id>
       <origin_ip>127.0.0.1</origin_ip>
       <received_time>2008/10/22 11:30:13</received_time>
       <start_time>2008/10/22 11:30:14</start_time>
       <end_time>2008/10/22 11:32:14</end_time>
       <duration_secs>120</duration_secs>
       <percentage_processed>100</percentage_processed>
       <status>-1</status>
       <description>Finished</description>
       <index_command>
       /DREADD?myfile.idx&KILLDUPLICATES=REFERENCE&DREDBNAME=Archive
       </index_command>
    </item>
    </responsedata>
    </autnresponse>
