SQL Server 2008 R2
We noticed that one of our full text catalogs was incorrectly set to "Do not track changes" with a "Last population date" set months ago. As soon as we set the Track changes setting to "Automatic", the Population status went to "Incrementally populating catalog"
The issue for us is that this is early morning of a work-day and it has rendered all file I/O access to result in Timeouts.
Is there a way to safely stop the population and resume it at a later time?
This catalog has a single table with 2 fields selected that are of data type: nvarchar(1000) and Image, which are BLOB's that represent the files our user's are now unable to access.
