Do a Full Crawl after installing MOSS SP1

  • Article

Hi all,

I have heard questions around the need to do a Full Crawl, after installing MOSS Service Pack 1. I did not see anything in the documents for SP1 that a full crawl is required or recommended.

But after talking to some of the experts, I was told that a full crawl is recommended but not required. The reason for that is there have been performance improvements made in SP1 that will leverage the information that MOSS collects in the full crawl, to make the incremental crawl much faster. So you do not have to do a full crawl after you move to SP1, and things will be fine ... but you will not see the performance improvements.

Cheers
Mike

    Hi Mike, I am just wondering if you can tell why the contents which are added to sharepoint are not reflected in the search while i have scheduled an incremental crawl for my website. whenever i want something to be added to search result i have got to reset all crawled content and do a full crawl again.
