En esta ocasión a nuestro paciente se le comenzó a ulcerar la cara con un aspecto algo preocupante mientras intentaba aprovisionar una topología de búsqueda en dicho servicio con un Set-SPEnterpriseSearchTopology -Identity $NewSearchTopology:
[DBG]: PS C:\Windows\system32>>
Set-SPEnterpriseSearchTopology : Topology activation failed. Service call
AddNodeMapping failed with message 'Exception while communicating with Host
Controller at ctshpliv01: Node deployment failed [System = E308E7, Node =
IndexComponent5] [Cause: Node IndexComponent5 for system E308E7 cannot be
deployed on this host due to insufficient physical memory, 2000 MB required
but only 1106 MB available.]'
A pesar de lo que pueda parecer este mensaje puede despistar un poco, y aunque lo primero que nos viene a la cabeza es echarle unos cuantos gigas extra a nuestra memoria física, eso no resolverá el problema si observamos el indicador de memoria en Task Manager mientras ejecutamos Set-SPEnterpriseSearchTopology.
La solución vino al adecuar mejor la arquitectura de topología a los recursos de que disponemos, por tanto al reducir el número de componentes de índice que se pretendía crear a la mitad, de ocho a cuatro (finalmente 2 por máquina), el problema fue subsanado y el servicio creado sin problemas.
Finalmente, la arquitectura creada fue la siguiente:
Y el script adaptado a nuestro caso utilizado el siguiente, el cual fue sacado originalmente de https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/chandru/2013/02/18/sharepoint-2013-configuring-search-service-application-and-topology-using-powershell/
El script original presentaba la topología con 8 índices, lo cual dio el actual problema de úlceras faciales que presentamos en nuestro caso.
