We are using solr 3.6 replication with two servers - a master and a slave - and we are currently looking for a way to make clean backups. p>
As the wiki says so , we can use the HTTP command to create a wizard snapshot as follows:http://myMasterHost/solr/replication?command=backup
But we still have a few questions:
What is the advantage of a command backupin a classic shell script to copy index files?
The team only reserves indexes; is it possible to copy the folder spellchecker? it's necessary?
Is it possible to create a snapshot while the application is running, so if there are potential index updates?
- When we need to restore servers from a backup, what do we need to do on the slave?
- just copy the snapshot in its index folder and delete the file
replication.properties(or not)? - to request fetchindex via an HTTP command
http://mySlave/solr/replication?command=fetchindex? - just delete the sub-index folder to force full replication from the wizard?
