Catalog Action
None |
Does not perform Optimize catalog, Rebuild catalog, or Repopulate catalog operations. |
Optimize catalog |
Optimizes the space utilization of the catalog and improves query performance. It also improves the accuracy of relevance ranking of search results. This action executes ALTER FULLTEXT CATALOG catalog_name REORGANIZE. |
Rebuild catalog |
Deletes and rebuilds the full-text catalog. This operation must be performed if a fundamental catalog property is changed, such as accent sensitivity. For the rebuild to succeed, the filegroup the full-text catalog resides in must be online or read-writeable. After the rebuild, the full-text index will be repopulated. This action executes ALTER FULLTEXT CATALOG catalog_name REBUILD. |
Repopulate catalog |
Updates the catalog with recent changes to the data. This option does require catalog downtime. |
