# RegenerateBitFieldIndex

Regenerate modified BitFieldType fields without reindexing the Content component. Set `RegenerateBitFieldIndex` to `True` if you want to define BitFieldType fields or add extra BitFieldType fields but have already indexed content. This option allows Content to generate the files that it requires to internally identify BitFieldType fields at startup, so that you need only to restart Content to be able to use BitFieldType fields, rather than having to reindex all your data.

After the BitFieldType index has been regenerated, OpenText recommends that you disable `RegenerateBitFieldIndex` again to avoid wasting time by regenerating the BitFieldType index every time you restart Content.

NOTE: You can also regenerate the BitFieldType index without restarting the server by using the DREREGENERATE index action.

Type: | Boolean
Default: | False
