Topic Last Modified: 2010-07-21

Sets properties of an index partition for a query topology.

Syntax

Set-SPEnterpriseSearchIndexPartition [-Identity] <IndexPartitionPipeBind> [-AssignmentCollection <SPAssignmentCollection>] [-Confirm [<SwitchParameter>]] [-PropertyDatabase <PropertyStorePipeBind>] [-QueryTopology <QueryTopologyPipeBind>] [-SearchApplication <SearchServiceApplicationPipeBind>] [-WhatIf [<SwitchParameter>]]

Detailed Description

The Set-SPEnterpriseSearchIndexPartition cmdlet updates properties of an index partition. Index partitions define how document identifiers (IDs) are mapped to the query components for full-text user queries for a shared search application.

Parameters

Parameter Required Type Description

Identity

Required

Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.Cmdlet.IndexPartitionPipeBind

Specifies the index partition to update.

The type must be a valid GUID, in the form 12345678-90ab-cdef-1234-567890bcdefgh, or an instance of a valid IndexPartition object.

AssignmentCollection

Optional

Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell.SPAssignmentCollection

Manages objects for the purpose of proper disposal. Use of objects, such as SPWeb or SPSite, can use large amounts of memory and use of these objects in Windows PowerShell scripts requires proper memory management. Using the SPAssignment object, you can assign objects to a variable and dispose of the objects after they are needed to free up memory. When SPWeb, SPSite, or SPSiteAdministration objects are used, the objects are automatically disposed of if an assignment collection or the Global parameter is not used.

Note

When the Global parameter is used, all objects are contained in the global store. If objects are not immediately used, or disposed of by using the Stop-SPAssignment command, an out-of-memory scenario can occur.

Confirm

Optional

System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter

Prompts you for confirmation before executing the command. For more information, type the following command: get-help about_commonparameters

PropertyDatabase

Optional

Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.Cmdlet.PropertyStorePipeBind

Specifies the property store to update.

A valid GUID, in the form 12345678-90ab-cdef-1234-567890bcdefgh; a valid property store name (for example, PropertyStore1); or an instance of a valid PropertyStore object.

QueryTopology

Optional

Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.Cmdlet.QueryTopologyPipeBind

Specifies the query topology that contains the index partition collection.

The type must be a valid GUID, in the form 12345678-90ab-cdef-1234-567890bcdefgh, or an instance of a valid QueryTopology object.

SearchApplication

Optional

Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.Cmdlet.SearchServiceApplicationPipeBind

Specifies the search application that contains the query topology.

The type must be a valid GUID, in the form 12345678-90ab-cdef-1234-567890bcdefgh; a valid search application name (for example, SearchApp1); or an instance of a valid SearchServiceApplication object.

WhatIf

Optional

System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter

Displays a message that describes the effect of the command instead of executing the command. For more information, type the following command: get-help about_commonparameters

Example

------------------EXAMPLE------------------

$searchapp = Get-SPEnterpriseSearchServiceApplication "SearchApp1" 
$qtopo = Get-SPEnterpriseSearchQueryTopology -SearchApplication $searchapp
$qtopo2 = New-SPEnterpriseSearchQueryTopology -SearchApplication $searchapp -QueryTopology $qtopo -Clone 
$index = Get-SPEnterpriseSearchIndexPartition -QueryTopology $qtopo2
$newpropstore = New-SPEnterpriseSearchPropertyDatabase -SearchApplication $searchapp -DatabaseName New_Property_Database
$index | Set-SPEnterpriseSearchIndexPartition -PropertyDatabase New_Property_Database
$qtopo2 | Set-SPEnterpriseSearchQueryTopology -Active

This example modifies the index partition by replacing the property database with a new database.
