| How to migrate FULL TEXT indexes from SQL SERVER 2000 to 2005? Is it okay if I migrate the MSDB DB? Do i need to create the physical folders manually?------------------------I think, therefore I am - Rene Descartes |

| Full text index is nothing to do with msdb. If you migrate whole instance with in place migration, it'll take care of full text index. |

| Unfortunately, I am not migrating the whole instance. I believe – the information of the jobs which refresh the Full-text index gets stored in msdb. Am I missing something?------------------------I think, therefore I am - Rene Descartes |

| Those jobs will not work if you don't migrate full text index. |

| I would highly recommend that when upgrading from 2000 to 2005, you just simply re-create the full text indexes. Full-Text search is radically different in 2005, for example, you do not have to schedule updates anymore through agent, you can enable automatic change tracking.- Eric |
