From SPC14: “Troubleshoot Search” session (spc375)

Wow! I wanted to send a huge thank you to the >500 folks that attended our session today and for the very gracious feedback. Here is a link to our session on Channel9:

How to manage and troubleshoot Search: A practical guide (SPC375)
https://channel9.msdn.com/Events/SharePoint-Conference/2014/SPC375

 

And as promised, here's the PowerShell that I build for filtering the ULS by correlation Id and having it automatically open in ULS viewer. To run it, simply use:

.\getULSbyCorrelation.ps1 "f41cb190-945e-458e-b924-77ec2fd066d4"  

 

$pathToULSViewer = "D:\Toolbox\UlsViewer.exe"

if ($args[0] -ne $null) {

    if ($args[1] -ne $null) {

        $outputPath = $args[1]

    } else {

        $outputPath = Join-Path $Pwd.Path $("byCorrelation_" + $args[0] + ".log")

    }

    Merge-SPLogFile -Path $outputPath -overwrite -Correlation $args[0] | Out-Null 

    if (Test-Path $outputPath) { Invoke-Expression "$pathToULSViewer $outputPath" }

    else { Write-Warning ("=== Found No Matching Events for this Correlation ===") }

} else { Write-Warning ("=== No CorrelationId Provided ===") }  

 

And optionally, specify a target path for this run using:

.\getULSbyCorrelation.ps1 "f41cb190-945e-458e-b924-77ec2fd066d4" $fullPathAndFileNameForOutput

 

Very much appreciated to all - this was a REALLY rewarding experience!

    Brian, can you post a link to the script for setting up that search server?

    Hey Joe.. .good to meet you earlier. The script used in that demo for provisioning an SSA was from an earlier post here: Deploying SharePoint 2013 SSA Across Multiple Servers Using PowerShell blogs.msdn.com/.../deploy-sharepoint-2013-ssa-across-multiple-servers-using-powershell.aspx

    Hello Brian I didnt find how to contact you directly so I will post my question here.  After looking at many spc 14 I just watched SPC375, and I think you are the right person to ask. We have a sharepoint farm with 2 wfe and 2 app servers, we have 2 web apps, one for our intranet (35gb of data), and another web app for our client documents system, which is 20.000 site collection spread over 5 content db, max 300gb. We created a content source for each. A full crawl takes about 24 hours at a dps of 10, and incremental crawls takes about 2 hours  with a dps of 2-4. When I checked the crawl health reports I see a repository latency between 3000-4000ms, CTS latency betwee 1000-2000ms and SQL latency is low, (0-30ms). I havent still found any information about how to troubleshoot this, I watched your session and maybe I can track a document through through ULS, I am not sure if this helps because the documents are crawled, crawler is not stuck. The intranet content source makes a full crawl in 15 min, and incremental crawls in 1 minute, so the problem  its only with our client document system's content source. Would you mind pointing me in the right direction? how to troubleshoot repository and cts latency? Thanks a lot

    Hello Brian, after researching a lot, and seeing your SPC375 with Jon I think you are the right person for my quesiton. We have a farm with 2 web applications, one hosts the intranet with 35gb of data, full crawl takes 15 min, incremental takes 1 min or 2.  The 2nd web application is the document management system with 20000 site collections, and over 300gb of data in 5 content databases.  On this one a full crawl takes 24 hours and incremental cralws takes 2 hours.  On each incremental crawl succeses are about 30,000, when we check the succeses its mainly Allitems.aspx and the homepage of each site collection, I know this doesnt change a lot. The main problem is crawl health, in the reports we can see repository latency between 3000 and 4000, and CTS latency between 1000-2000, sql latency is very low between 0-30. I wonder if you can guide me in the right direction to troubleshoot this latencies as they are too big.  I know I could ignore AllItems.aspx from being crawled but that will only reduce the nr of succeses, it wont reduce the main problem, latency. After seeing the SPC video, I am not sure if tracking a document through the uls logs will help me, because my crawler is not stuck, its only too slow.  Our dps in incremental crawl is 3 or 4, on full crawls its 9 or 10. Thanks a lot in advance.
