Just found out the root cause: * The segments.gen file does not get replicated to slave all the time.
For some reason, this small (20bytes) file lives in memory and does not get updated to the master's hard disk. Therefore it is not obviously transferred to slaves. Solution was to shut down the master web app (must be a clean shut down!, not kill of Tomcat). Then do the replication. Also, if the timestamp/size (size won't change anyway!) is not changed, Rsync does not seem to copy over this file too. So enforcing in the replication scripts solved the problem. Thanks Otis and everyone for all your support!

We have tried Solr 1.4 and so far its been great success. Still I am investigating why Solr 1.3 gave an issue like before. Currently seems to me org.apache.lucene.index.SegmentInfos.FindSegmentFile.run() is not able to figure out correct segment file name. (May be index replication issue -- leading to "not fully replicated".. but its so hard to believe as both master and slave are having 100% same data now!) Anyway.. will keep on trying till I find something useful.. and will let you know.
