Detailed Description

The Set-SPEnterpriseSearchCrawlTopology cmdlet updates the properties of a specified crawl topology. A crawl topology contains the crawl component collection for a topology on a shared search application.

Parameters

Parameter Required Type Description

Identity

Required

Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.Cmdlet.CrawlTopologyPipeBind

Specifies the crawl topology to update.

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

Active

Optional

System.Management.Automation.SwitchParameter

Activates the specified topology. An active crawl topology is currently serving crawls for the search application.

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

SearchApplication

Optional

Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.Cmdlet.SearchServiceApplicationPipeBind

Specifies the search application that contains the crawl topology collection.

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"
$topo = Get-SPEnterpriseSearchCrawlTopology -SearchApplication $searchapp -Identity 00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000
New-SPEnterpriseSearchCrawlComponent -SearchApplication $searchapp -CrawlTopology $topo -CrawlDatabase "Sample_Search_Service_Application_CrawlStoreDB" -SearchServiceInstance servername -IndexLocation d:\crawlshare
$topo | Set-SPEnterpriseSearchCrawlTopology -Active

This example retrieves the inactive crawl topology, adds a search component to it, and activates the crawl topology.
