Hi Simon,

in episerver.config you can disable the schedule jobs.

e.g.

<episerver xmlns="http://EPiServer.Configuration.EPiServerSection">
<applicationSettings 
enableScheduler="false" />
</episerver>

Usually we set enableScheduler to false for all public facing websites and true for the admin server.

thanks

The Index queue does not get affected by the scheduler. However, the indexing queue has been improved in recent versions of Episerver Find. Which version are you running?

Thanks Daniel - its not the scheduled job, but the on going indexing on Publish / Save of content.  Cheers for the suggestion though.

@Per, we got to the bottom of the issue which was an item failing to index, but then the contents of tblBigTable (DDS) had a lot of unindexed items which then in turn caused some processes to be locked.

I can see that the new version of Find has its own index item table, but for now we have solved this issue.

Thanks,

Simon
