1) Just put the new field in the schema and stop/start solr. Documents in the index will not have the field until you reindex them but it won't hurt anything.
2) Just turn off their handlers in solrconfig is all I think that takes. -----Original Message----- From: gauravshetti [mailto:gaurav.she...@tcs.com] Sent: Monday, November 08, 2010 5:21 AM To: solr-user@lucene.apache.org Subject: Adding new field after data is already indexed Hi, I had a few questions regarding Solr. Say my schema file looks like <field name="folder_id" type="long" indexed="true" stored="true"/> <field name="indexed" type="boolean" indexed="true" stored="true"/> and i index data on the basis of these fields. Now, incase i need to add a new field, is there a way i can add the field without corrupting the previous data. Is there any feature which adds a new field with a default value to the existing records. 2) Is there any security mechanism/authorization check to prevent url like /admin and /update to only a few users. -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/Adding-new-field-after-data-is-alread y-indexed-tp1862575p1862575.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
