Re: The mechanism of data replciation in Solr?

Thank you, Thorsten Scherler and Bill Au.I'm so indiscretionary to
post this question, Thanks for your patience.
Ok, Here comes my new questions, Solr's Wiki says
"All the files in the index directory are hard links to the latest
snapshot. This technique has these advantages: Can keep multiple
snapshots on each host without the need to keep multiple copies of
index files that have not changed. File copying from master to slave
is
very fast...balabala
^^

"
Why do hard links make file copying between master and slave fast?
Thanks. Best Regards.

The mechanism of data replciation in Solr?

2007-09-05 Thread Dong Wang
Hello, everybody:-)
I'm interested with the mechanism of data replciation in Solr, In the
"Introduction to the solr enterprise Search Server", Replication is
one of features of Solr, but I can't find anything about replication
issues on the Web site and documents, including how to split the
index, how to distribute the chunks of index, how to placement the
replica, eager replicaton  or lazy replication..etc. I think  they are
different from the problem in HDFS.
Can anybody help me? Thank you in advance.

Best Wishes.
