SharePoint 2013 Search: Unable to retrieve topology component health states. This may be because the admin component is not up and running

Problem:
SharePoint 2013 Search service application displays the error message “Unable to retrieve topology component health states. This may be because the admin component is not up and running.”

Unable to retrieve topology component health states. This may be because the admin component is not up and running

Solution:

After making sure the account configured to run search service & Search Service Host in the Services console, (Service.msc), Provisioned the Usage Application Proxy with PowerShell.

Open SharePoint 2013 Management Shell, and run these commands.

$UsageProxy = Get-SPServiceApplicationProxy | where {$_.TypeName -like "Usage*"}
$UsageProxy.Provision()

  • This is not working in 2019 environment. we tried to create new search as well but the same issue with the new search also.
    exact the same issue below technet ” https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/lync/en-US/1d4ba209-0f67-4a5a-ae71-a8d7c06e85e7/activating-search-topology-is-throwing-an-exception?forum=sharepointsearch ” and this too ” https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/troubleshoot/security/configuration-to-support-kerberos-aes-encryption ”
    and go to know that no recent GPO changes and no recent changes in service account too.
