full-text search for a particular table.

  • we are having some peformance issue

    To overcome this we are planning to enable full-texts search on tbl_notes, It is possible to enable full-text for a particular table.

    how to do this and wil it effects performance.

    Pls guide me on this.

  • Books Online has step-by-step directions on how to turn on full text indexing. I recommend following those directions.

    It can affect performance, but Books Online also has data on how to manage that.

    You'll need to make some decisions based on your specific situation and goals.

  • As per book online steps

    we should go to db-> table->right clk and select full text index option,but here full text index option is not highlighted i,e we can't select that.so wat to do for that.

  • ANJAN.ASHOK try reading this from BOL:

    Getting Started with Full-Text Search

    ms-help://MS.SQLCC.v9/MS.SQLSVR.v9.en/fulltxt9/html/1fa628ba-0ee4-4d8f-b086-c4e52962ca4a.htm

    It gives an example using the AdventureWorks database. It is reasonably detailed enough so to get you going.

    This page provides links to a whole host of full text search concepts on How-to topics

    If everything seems to be going well, you have obviously overlooked something.

  • I would be very surprised if Full text would help out with performance issues. Would need a little more info on what your actually trying to fix. The only time I can every get Full text to perform is replicating data to a dedicated box for the search functionality. Please give us some more details on the type of searches that our causing problems. I find there is a lot of confusion on actually what full text does in our community.

  • Yes, it will help you...ashok

    and its easy to implements also....

    just go through the books online and do it..:)

    Cheers!

  • Again, how in the world is enabling full text search on a server that already has performance issues helping anything. I would argue there is a good chance running full text on this table will degrade overall performance of the server.
