hi, I've successfully added fields to my schema.xml before, and been able to incrementally keep indexing documents with just the new ones picking up the fields. This appears to be similar to the case of not including certain fields in certain documents, as the other documents simply don't have them until they're added.
I'm looking into testing a MoreLikeThis implementation, and have read on here that termVectors are needed to make it run acceptably. I'd like to rebuild my index, but that will take some time given the number of documents involved, and I'd like to keep incremental updates running at the same time. The constraint is on the database side not the SOLR indexing side, so improvements to indexing performance aren't my main concern here. So, my question is whether adding termVectors="true" to a couple of schema fields will work similarly to adding new fields, where the updated documents will get the vectors added and the others won't get them but will continue to work, allowing me to rebuild "in the background" while not breaking anything in my existing incremental update/release cycle. I appreciate your help.
