----------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Fix Version/s: 1.7.4
> Support for out of band indexing with read only access to NodeStore
> -------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: OAK-6246
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-6246
> Project: Jackrabbit Oak
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: run
> Reporter: Chetan Mehrotra
> Assignee: Chetan Mehrotra
> Fix For: 1.8, 1.7.4
>
>
> Provide support for out of band indexing where oak-run is connected in read
> only mode with NodeStore and indexes are stored on file system. These are
> then imported back by target system.
> Had a discussion with [~catholicon] and following flow was determined
> # Admin would create provision a checkpoint via CheckpointMBean
> # oak-run index is connected to NodeStore in read only mode and passed with
> #* checkpoint from previous step
> #* list of indexes which need to be reindexed
> # oak-run index logic would then proceed with reindexing. However the created
> index data would be stored locally. This would make use of
> #* DirectoryFactory - OAK-6243
> #* Copy-on-write nodestore approach as being used in OAK-6220
> # Once indexing is completed it would dump all index to an output folder with
> some metadata
> # Then admin can copy this index data and use an MBean on the target setup to
> "import" it back. This import would need to
> #* Pause the current async indexers
> #* Import the external index files
> #* Bring the external indexer upto date to there respective lanes checkpoint
> #* Resume the async indexer
> The benefit of this approach is that
> # We only need to backport the import logic. Rest all can be implemented in
> trunk and need not be backported.
> # Using read-only mode allow oak-run from trunk to be safely connected to any
> of the old versions
