Search issue in Network Shares
Original Question or Issue:
Issues with File and Folder name search in Network Shares.
Environment:
- Product - FileCloud Server
- Version - Any
- Platform - Windows
Steps to Reproduce:
Error or Log Message:
Search queries were not returning results in FileCloud User portal.
Defect or Enhancement Number:
Cause:
Files and Folder name search in Network Shares with large data set may not work efficiently due to limitations with Solr indexing on folders with millions of files.
Resolution or Workaround:
If solr indexing is not efficiently providing search result, it's possible to switch to file system level search. This will require the following changes:
- Solr disabled completely in FileCloud setup
- fcorchestrator service is running with a service account which have permissions on the Network Shares
Notes:
File system level search on large folder/file structure can be slow.
