backup getting stuck SQL server 2005 -- MSSEARCH wait type

  • Hi,

    My backup job seems to have stopped working, when I look at the Activty monitor. the wait type = MSSearch.

    The only way I can enable it to work is if I go to Cluster administrator and dissable full text index.

    I assume the full text index for some of my database are corupt.

    Is there a way to query out a list of database with corupt full text index catalog?

    Thanks

  • I am not sure if you can find corrupted catalog throught the SQL query, but if there is any corrupted full text catalog you will get errors in Application Log.

  • Have you put any thought in to rebuilding the Full-text catalog(s) prior to the backup job? It isn't a bad maintenance addendum to rebuild Full-text catalogs once a month or so.
