Sharpoint 2003, 1 SQL, 1 web&search and 1 index server, plus seperate
wss archive server.
A client archives its 'old' documents to seperate wss sites. They use
sps to crawl the content of the these websites. Currently there are
over 2 miljn documents in these archives (6 wss sites). Every year the
open a new archive. Last week the index was broken and rebuilding to
more then a week. My questions:
1) I believe it is better to have 6 or so seperate indexes (one per
website) so in case of emergency, one can easly rebuild according to
priority. Do you agree?
2) Can we backup the index (gatherer files) in some way so the we can
do incremental rebuilding in case of emergency?
3) Do you have any links to whitepapers or blogs
