# Disable Index Actions

You can prevent the DIH from forwarding certain index actions to its child servers. For example, you might want to prevent a user from sending a DREINITIAL index action to all child servers of a DIH.

In the `[IndexServer]` section of the DIH configuration file, set DisallowedIndexCommands to a comma-separated list of index actions that you do not want the DIH to forward. For example:

    [IndexServer]
    DisallowedIndexCommands=DREINITIAL,DRECOMPACT

If a user sends these index actions to the DIH, it rejects them with a `NOT AUTHORIZED` error.
