Disable indexing of mailboxes

Hi,

See my previous post, where we want to put the ft files on an external raid cabinet.

Meanwhile we want to disable indexing for mailboxes.

There is a notes.ini setting, but does this not disable all indexing on the server ?

Regards

Have you tried this :

UPDATE_NO_FULLTEXT=1

I have not tried the UPDATE_NO_FULLTEXT=1setting, because i wanted to be sure that it only blocks the users from creating indexes, and not the server.

It won’t stop users accessing the server.

Syntax: Update_No_Fulltext=value

Description: Turns off full-text indexing on a server.

0 - Turns full-text indexing on

1 - Turns full-text indexing off

Applies to: Servers

I meant, will it not stop the server from building it’s own indexes ?

What are the disadvantages of this ini setting ?

Thanks for the help

Yes, it will stop the server building indexes.

You could try changing the users’ ACL access from Manager to Editor. This will prevent them creating full text indexes but you’ll need to delete the existing full text indexes yourself.
