Thanks. I was looking for an o/s independent way of copying. Probably I can use BufferedInputStream and BufferedOutputStream classes to copy the index to a different location. -----Original Message----- From: Justin Swanhart [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, November 17, 2004 2:35 PM To: Lucene Users List Subject: Re: Index copy
You could lock your index for writes, then copy the file using operating system copy commands. Another way would be to lock your index, make a filesystem snapshot, then unlock your index. You can then safely copy the snapshot without interupting further index operations.
