Can I disable the "Limit of total fields [1000] in index" globally? At least in my Test environment. It's generating uneccessay logs. I understand the need to limit it but I don't want to. So far all the posts I've read dealt with disabling it per index. I would rather have it done site wide. Any ideas?
