Hi
ReplyDeleteI have a site collection of size 20GB. Deleting the site collection from CA will work fine or will it timeout during the operation and will generate orphans?
it will definitely time out and generate orphan entries. I would suggest you to go for the Powershell and delete that site collection successfully. I am pretty much sure that it will work for you :) keep me updated on the results in case of any probs, Thanks for your patience....
