Could a kill -9 prevent data from reaching disk for files that were previously closed?
No. After a close() the OS should have all the data... the process may be killed but the OS will eventually flush all the buffers, etc. File creation is pretty much always synchronous so I have no idea how your problem could have happened (missing segment files). IO error or something else temporarily filling up the disk? If you have a power loss or crash, then that *can* cause data loss. There may be mount options to make more file operations synchronous, or you could maybe write your own Directory implementation to make things more synchronous. -Yonik http://incubator.apache.org/solr Solr, the open-source Lucene search server --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
