Na het installeren van de updates is het belangrijk om de SharePoint Products and Technologies Configuration Wizard uit te voeren. Dit kan zowel vanuit het Start Menu worden gestart als vanaf een command: “psconfig –cmd upgrade –inplace b2b -wait”. Deze moeten op alle servers worden toegepast binnen de farm waarop SharePoint staat geïnstalleerd.

If the computer you run the diagnostic on is not connected to the internet, you have to move or copy the upload results folder and the files it contains (Readme, Config.xml, Results*.cab, Upload_Results.exe) to an internet connected computer and run the Upload_Results.exe application contained within, to securely send the diagnostic results to your support professional.

Since the steps to run the SDP diagnostic on a computer that has no Internet connection are different from described here:

Information about Microsoft Automated Troubleshooting Services and Support Diagnostic Platform
https://support.microsoft.com/kb/2598970#q2

Here are the steps to run a SDP diagnostic package on a computer without internet connection:

Step 1 - Start the SDP process on a computer with internet connection

Step 2 – Create Diagnostics for the computer without internet connection

Step 3 – Run the SDP package on the computer without internet access

Step 4 – Upload the SDP package on the computer with internet access

Here’s the step by step in detail.

Step 1 - Start the SDP process on a computer with internet connection

You have received the following (or similar) email:

Click on the link, which will open the following web page:

And start the SDP package:

After accepting it will download the diagnostic package:

Step 2 – Create Diagnostics for the computer without internet connection

When the diagnostics components are downloaded, choose a different computer:

Read the steps or just follow this article:

Save the Diagnostics to a folder, USB or network location:

Wait until the SDP package has been downloaded:

The Diagnostics have been created, so you can close the tool:

The Diagnostic package is created in C:\Temp

You can move this package to any other computer without internet connection.

Step 3 – Run the SDP package on the computer without internet access

Start the SDP package on the computer without internet access:

Accept the License Agreement:

Start the Diagnostics:

Wait until all information is collected:

Review the results:

And save it to a folder, USB or network location:

After saving you will find the files for the computer with the network connection here:

With the following content:

You can now close the SDP package on this computer:

And you can move the SDP package found here:

to the computer with internet access.

Step 4 – Upload the SDP package on the computer with internet access

After you have moved the SDP package:

to the computer with internet access, you can start to upload the package with Upload_Results:

And send the SDP package:

TIP: Het cumulatieve Update pakket voor SharePoint 2010 Server (SPS2010) bevat tevens alle updates voor SharePoint 2010 Foundation (MSF2010). Het is dus niet langer nodig beide updates te downloaden en te installeren – De Cumulatieve Update voor SharePoint Server 2010 zal ook Microsoft SharePoint Foundation 2010 bijwerken.

The official Microsoft Documentation regarding Duplicates can be found here:

https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj687488.aspx (Customizing search results in SharePoint 2013).

Issue:

Recently we have several cases reported regarding Duplicates in Search (SPS2013).

Therefore I would like to take the opportunity here to blog about this behavior. Hope this helps you in the field to understand the default behavior.

Symptoms

We have a few documents which have several similar but not exactly identical properties. When we perform the search based on a similar property, we do see only a few documents as Duplicates, and not all.

Cause

The Document stream – content text only (no titles, no filenames, no metadata, no urls) is broken into what are known as minima. The exact number of minima is Microsoft confidential but needless to say the approach is to break the document into same sized chunks.

Each group of chunks is then hashed into a larger chunk known as a supershingle

One or more supershingles are then hashed together to produce a megashingle.

The megashingle hash values are stored in the Database to produce a table of hashes for each document in the search index.

At query time this table is queried and each result in the main result set is tested for the existence of hashes that match its own set. If more than one hash is the same for two given documents then those are said to be near duplicates. The more matches are found then the closer those documents are to being identical.

The key point is that we are looking for NEAR DUPLICATES, not exact duplicates.

Note: megashingle hash values = DocumentSignature

Resolution

This is an expected behavior. As a Workaround, you can turn off ‘View Duplicates’ option in the search web part.

Note:

You can simulate the above Duplicate behavior with the SearchQueryTool (from Codeplex - https://sp2013searchtool.codeplex.com/), and fill out the “documentsignature” property in the “Select Properties” box, and then run your Search Query again.

Ofcourse you can check/uncheck the “Tim Duplicates” checkbox to see the differences in the Primary Result tab.

In helping with troubleshooting SharePoint issues we can make use of the SharePoint Unified Logging System; or in short: ULS logs. ULS logs can provide in-depth information about the problem to a support group to enable faster resolution.

Default Location ULS log:

SPS2007 - C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\12\LOGS

SPS2010 - C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\LOGS

SPS2013 - C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\15\LOGS

ULS Verbose logging:

You can get most details by setting the ULS logging mode to Verbose or VerboseEx mode.

Note: Please be aware to only enable Verbose logging mode while reproducing the issue, because this mode will quickly fill up your hard disc.

More details can be found here:

https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee748619.aspx (Configure diagnostic logging (SharePoint Foundation 2010))

ULS Viewer:

ULS Viewer can be used in different modes. The log can be read from log files, real time ULS log, or even clipboard. For example:

On a server that is running SharePoint 2010, run ULS Viewer. Click File, Open From, then choose ULS (This could also be done by simply press Ctrl+U). Immediately the logs will be shown in real-time. You can filter message level by click the icons in the middle. This can tell you what is going on inside SharePoint. You can filter on multiple criteria to isolate your issue.

Note: Please have a look at the Documentation link here below for more details of how to use the ULS Viewer tool. A few common ways of filtering are by using the “Correlation id” or the “Category“. Next to that, you can right-click on one of the message lines, and then select “Show Errors Only”. Or, simply do a CTRL-F (find) to search for a keyword.

Ter informatie: De grootte van de cumulatieve updates zijn kleiner dat de cumulatieve updates die dateren voor de Juni 2010 CU. Dit komt omdat SP2 vanaf die datum vereist is om de update te kunnen installeren. Hierdoor is het niet langer nodig bepaalde (SP1 / SP2) fixes met elke cumulatieve update te publiceren.

Additionele informatie omtrent het downloaden en installeren van updates:
• Installeer eerst Service Pack 3 voor zowel Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 als Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007, indien dat nog niet is gedaan.
(WSS3.0 / MOSS2007 omgevingen zonder SP2 vallen buiten support. Bij eventuele problemen kan de support medewerker u verzoeken eerst SP2 of hoger te installeren voordat er werkelijk aan het probleem gewerkt gaat worden.)
• Zorg ervoor dat ook de WSS / MOSS Language Packs zijn bijgewerkt met de Service Pack.
• Indien Service Pack 2 voor zowel Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 als Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 al zijn geïnstalleerd, installeer dan SP3. Deze is overigens ook terug te vinden bij Windows Updates:

Na het installeren van de updates is het belangrijk om de SharePoint Products and Technologies Configuration Wizard uit te voeren. Dit kan zowel vanuit het Start Menu worden gestart als vanaf een command: “psconfig –cmd upgrade –inplace b2b -wait”.
