Hi SQLBuddy,

thanks for the answer. Yes, I realized that by now.

Only leaves me with one small problem.

I know how to move a normal index with Create index... DROP_EXISTING.

And I realize that something like this does not exist for a fulltext index.

Does that mean if i want to move a fulltext index to another filegroup, I have to drop and recreate it?

This seems like a huge operation on huge databases with no real maintenance window. Is there any way around that?
