Sharepoint 2010 - List View Threshold

Question

I am doing POC in Sharepoint 2010. I give List View Threshold value as 2000 and Daily Time Window for Large Queries as 1.00 PM - 2.00 PM.I have folder which contains more than 6500 files.While i am trying to access that folder by 6.00 PM. it doesn't shows any error.Can any one say why the sharepoint doesn't shows any error?

Answer 1

Solution : It works only for normal user.. if you are using site collection administrator or farm administrator LVT doesn't applied. eventhough you applying LVT value for administrator.

Answer 2

I guess that's because you are probably a Site Collection administrator.

According to this link: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc262787.aspx the throttling value for SC administrators is 20000 itens:

List view threshold for auditors and administrators
20,000

Try to log in with a simple Contributor user, and you will se a list throttling warning when entering that list.
