Hi Divya,
The Lucene library itself provides no support for "backup".
You might be interested in the Solr project[1], which extends Lucene,
and which automates index replication. From the Solr Introduction /
Features page[2]:
Replication
* Efficient distribution of index parts that have changed via rsync
transport
* Pull strategy allows for easy addition of searchers
* Configurable distribution interval allows tradeoff between
timeliness and cache utilization
