Hi list, after upgrading from solr4.0 to solr4.1 and running it for two weeks now it turns out that replication has problems and unpredictable results. My installation is single index 41 mio. docs / 115 GB index size / 1 master / 3 slaves. - the master builds a new index from scratch once a week - a replication is started manually with Solr admin GUI
What I see is one of these cases: - after a replication a new searcher is opened on index.xxxxxxx directory and the old data/index/ directory is never deleted and besides the file replication.properties there is also a file index.properties OR - the replication takes place everything looks fine but when opening the admin GUI the statistics report Last Modified: a day ago Num Docs: 42262349 Max Doc: 42262349 Deleted Docs: 0 Version: 45174 Segment Count: 1 Version Gen Size Master: 1360483635404 112 116.5 GB Slave: 1360483806741 113 116.5 GB In the first case, why is the replication doing that??? It is an offline slave, no search activity, just there fore backup! In the second case, why is the version and generation different right after full replication? Any thoughts on this? - Bernd
