  • Artikel

Description : This is for specific need of having 2 different Search Indexes in the same farm and make use of both in a same Search center site. You can have different search topologies on different search service applications in the same farm.

Steps

 

  • Create 2 Search service application namely “Search Service Application 1(Consuming)” and “Search Service Application 2(Publishing)” 

  • Create 2 web application “SSA1” and “SSA2” for 2 search center sites 

SSA1 https://sp:5001/   

SSA2 https://sp:5002/

  • Create 2 Enterprise search center site collection on these web applications 

SSA1 site: https://sp:5001/sites/Search5001   (Consuming) 

SSA1 site: https://sp:5002/sites/Search5002   (Publishing) 

  • Added 2 different content sources to each Search Service application as below 

For Search service application 1: 

  1. Local SharePoint resource : https://sp:5001 

For Search service application 2: 

  1. Local SharePoint resource : https://sp:5002  
  1. Websites: https://onlinehelp.microsoft.com/en-in/bing/ff808487.aspx  

  • Perform full crawl on all the content sources in both the Search service applications 

  • Change the proxy associations of the 2 web applications as given below, deselect the other search service application proxy 

SSA1 web application - Search Service Application 1 [default]

 

SSA2 web application - Search Service Application 2  [default] 

 

  • Verify if you can search and get the results on both the search center sites according to the content source added to it 

https://sp:5001/sites/Search5001/Pages/results.aspx?k=site  

 

 

https://sp:5002/sites/Search5002/Pages/results.aspx?k=site  

 

  • Now open Search service application 1, go to Result sources 

  • Add new result source with name “SSA2” 

 

  • Configure this “SSA2” result source as below 

Protocol: Remote SharePoint 

Remote service URL: https://sp:5002/sites/Search5002/ 

 

 

  • Go to consuming search center site -> pages library -> Create a page with name “SSA2” 

 

  • Now go to site setting and then Search settings -> Configure Search Navigation 

  • Add link -> Select the new created page “SSA2” with title “SSA2”

  • Edit the existing “Everything” link as “SSA1” 

 

  • Click Ok to save and apply 

  • Now consuming Search center site should look like below 

 

  • Edit the search center site and edit the search result web-part query to display the results from result source created “SSA2” 

 

  • Save the webpart and then the page. 

  • Clicking the Search vertical links namely “SSA1” and “SSA2” will display results from corresponding search service application 

 

Note:- You can modify the result source or the search result web part query to display the results differently for both the Search service applications in the consuming search center site
