How do I find the name of the index?

For performing archives, it seems I have to use the name of the index in the conf file. How do I know what index name is being used?

Thanks

After reading the admin manual , it seems the default index name is main.

Thanks all.

As per the doc:

[]
coldToFrozenDir = ""

In the above what should be typed in for "index"

Also the doc mentions to create the change in the local directory. So how does this update the main indexes file in the default folder?

Thanks
