Recrawl Tutorial:
Start, pause, resume, or stop a crawl for a content source
From the Manage Content Sources page, you can start, pause, resume, or stop a crawl for any content source that does not have continuous crawls enabled.
To start, pause, resume, or stop a crawl for a content source
- Verify that the user account that is performing this procedure is an administrator for the Search service application.
- In Central Administration, in the Application Management section, click Manage Service Applications.
- On the Manage Service Applications page, in the list of service applications, click the Search service application.
- On the Search Administration page, in the Crawling section, click Content Sources.
- On the Manage Content Sources page, in the list of content sources, point to the name of the content source that you want, click the arrow and then click one of the following menu items. (The value in the Status column might not automatically refresh when the value changes. To update values in the Status column, refresh the Manage Content Sources page by clicking Refresh.)
- Start Full Crawl. The value in the Status column changes to Crawling Full for the selected content source.
- Start Incremental Crawl. The value in the Status column changes to Crawling Incremental for the selected content source.
- Resume Crawl. The value in the Status column changes back to Crawling Full or Crawling Incremental for the selected content source.
- Pause Crawl. The value in the Status column changes to Paused for the selected content source.
Note:
Pausing a crawl has the disadvantage that references to crawl components can remain in the MSSCrawlComponentsState table in the search administration database. This can cause a problem if you want to remove any crawl components (say, because you want to remove a server that hosts those components from the farm). However, when you stop a crawl, references to crawl components in the MSSCrawlComponentsState table are deleted. Therefore, if you want to remove crawl components, it is better to stop crawls than to pause crawls. For more information about removing crawl components, see Best practices for crawling in SharePoint Server 2013. - Stop Crawl. You must click OK to confirm that you want to stop the crawl. The value in the Status column changes to Idle for the selected content source.
Note:
If you stop a full or incremental crawl that is in progress (for example, so that you can change the search topology), the next time a crawl occurs for that content source, the Search system automatically performs a full crawl.
