Hello there,
we arer facing an (odd) problem with the indexing feature on W2008R2.
We migrated our old File Server Files from W2003 to a new W2008R2 Server whom we want to use as Fileserver. We have about 15 Million Files and more to index and obviously Windows seems to mess up with such huge amount of files to index
The problem is, that now on our (W7) Clients the explorer goes into a loop and cant connect to the Fileserver share due to the reason, that the index Service on the new Fileserver is gone down. The issue of the not accessible index service yet only can get a workaround with reboot of the Server.
My Questions:
1.) Are there any informations available how many files the windows search supports?
2.) Has there been a change below W2012 regarding this issue?
3.) Is the described problem known by anyone?
4.) Is there any solution available for this problem?
Kind regards from switzerland
