It seems that there is some issue and we have a Catalogdata folder too Huge. We have 16 DB’s, there are 2 DB's that have huge Catalog folders. If i stop the Search service, will the other catalogdata folders become inconsistent or any issues seen for them. I assume that once done on Active i will only be reseeding the Catalog or will it just start seeding from another copy as soon as I start the service?
Should i be planning for some Backup
Thanks in Advance !

Yes hope you have a Good DB backup and that should be it

Can i work on the Passive Node and then do a failover and come back to this server ?
Would i need to suspend the SGcopy ?
