However, an optimize operation will block incoming update requests until it completes. Snapshots are a different story. Solr does not even know about any snapshots -- all operations are performed on the main index only. If you look under the hoods, it is the snapshooter shell script which creates the snapshot directories. -- Regards, Shalin Shekhar Mangar.
