Full-Text index automatic change tracking
Is there a way to get know about when the full-text index is updated and ready for use after an insert or update statement occured in a table on which automatic change tracking is enabled?
Best Answer
Yes, look for the relevant row in sys.fulltext_indexes and ensure that crawl_end_date is after the time that the row was inserted, crawl_type is not 'P' and has_crawl_completed = 1
Thanks for your answer Matt, but that catalog view has information in the fields you've mentioned only about the initial full crawl. After the later changes made by DML statments in the table are propagated to the full-text catalog only the incremental_timestamp field is changing, although this might help me if I check it before and after the data modification.
You might want to raise it on connect then, because the last crawl after an update should be an incremental crawl, and should affect the end date just the same...
