SharePoint 2013 Search Bug
After having this issue on newly installed
SharePoint 2013 farm in production environment, I figure it out that Single
server is running out of memory. Especially, thanks to one new process noderunner.exe.
Noderunner.exe is the new executable of search
service on SharePoint 2013. This process can’t turn it off because Search is
one of essential service application in SharePoint 2013, and it is integrated
in many features. So, there are some things you can do to reduce the impact of
Search on your system.
Solution 1
Reduce the Search Service Performance Level with
this PowerShell command:
Set-SPEnterpriseSearchService
-PerformanceLevel Reduced
or
Set-SPEnterpriseSearchService
-PerformanceLevel PartiallyReduced, which is in between reduced and Maximal
Solution 2
Limit the Memory Footprint of NodeRunner.exe is
one thing that is not so recommended. There is a configuration setting for
NodeRunner.exe’s configuration file that can limit RAM usage of a single
process to specific value in megabytes. This configuration file is
located at: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office
Servers\15.0\Search\Runtime\1.0\noderunner.exe.config. The configuration
setting is under the nodeRunnerSettings node and it’s called
memoryLimitMegabytes. Its default value is 0 (unlimited). Every
time you change it, you’ll need to restart all of the noderunner.exe processes.
On some blogs I have found that noderunner.exe
has memory leak and this is known bug in SharePoint 2013.
Enable managing content types by default at list creation
When we create a list/ document library in SharePoint, Manage Content Types is disabled
by default. You can enable it manually
or programmatically.
Manually :
Go to Library settings and click « Advanced settings » Link.
Now, select « Yes » for the manage content
types.
After you can select content Types that you want to be
enabled in your library
Programmatically :
You can do it in feature event receiver.
Changing the UI language with SP2010
Changing the UI language is possible out-of-the-box with SP2010.
- First you need to install the language pack you need.
- Then you can activate these languages under "Site settings", "Site Administration", "language settings" Even though you cannot change the default language (since it fixed during the site creation process), you can add alternative languages.
- Now user can choose their language by clicking on their name in the upper right corner (that menu that gives to access to your MySite and "Sign in as different user" things.)
After switching the UI now shows up in the new language.
