Hi,
I have created 2 identical cores coreX and coreY (both have different
dataDir values, but their index is same).
coreX - always serves the request when a user performs a search.
coreY - the updates will happen to this core and then I need to synchronize
it with coreX after the update process, so that coreX also has the
latest data in it. After coreX and coreY are synchronized, both
should again be identical again.
For this purpose I tried core merging of coreX and coreY once coreY is
updated with the latest set of data. But I find coreX to be containing
double the record count as in coreY.
(coreX = coreX+coreY)
Is there a problem in using MERGE concept here. If it is wrong can some one
pls suggest the best approach. I tried the various merges explained in my
previous mail.
Any help is deeply appreciated.
Thanks and Rgds,
Mark.

Hi,
I have a doubt regarding Index Merging:-
I have set up 2 cores COREX and COREY.
COREX - always serves user requests
COREY - gets updated with the latest values (dataDir is in a different
location from COREX)
I tried merging coreX and coreY at the end of COREY getting updated with the
latest data values so that COREX and COREY are having the latest data. So
the user who always queries COREX gets the latest data.Pls find the various
approaches I followed and the commands used.
I tried these merges:-
COREX = COREX and COREY merged
curl '
http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/cores?action=mergeindexes&core=coreX&indexDir=/opt/solr/coreX/data/index&indexDir=/opt1/solr/coreY/data/index
'
COREX = COREY and COREY merged
curl '
http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/cores?action=mergeindexes&core=coreX&indexDir=/opt/solr/coreY/data/index&indexDir=/opt1/solr/coreY/data/index
'
COREX = COREY and COREA merged (COREA just contains the initial 2 seed
segments.. a dummy core)
curl '
http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/cores?action=mergeindexes&core=coreX&indexDir=/opt/solr/coreY/data/index&indexDir=/opt1/solr/coreA/data/index
'
When I check the record count in COREX and COREY, COREX always contains
about double of what COREY has. Is everything fine here and just the record
count is different or is there something wrong.
Note:- I have only 2 cores here and I tried the X=X+Y approach, X=Y+Y and
X=Y+A approach where A is a dummy index. Never have the record counts
matched after the merging is done.
Can someone please help me understand why this record count difference
occurs and is there anything fundamentally wrong in my approach.
Thanks and Rgds,
Mark.
