Thanks Graham. Atleast from looking at the snapshooter script, it doesn't seem to be doing anything specific. The following is a fragment from the script - snap_name=snapshot.`date +"%Y%m%d%H%M%S"` name=${data_dir}/${snap_name} temp=${data_dir}/temp-${snap_name} if [[ -d ${name} ]] then logMessage snapshot directory ${name} already exists logExit aborted 1 fi if [[ -d ${temp} ]] then logMessage snapshoting of ${name} in progress logExit aborted 1 fi # clean up after INT/TERM trap 'echo cleaning up, please wait ...;/bin/rm -rf ${name} ${temp};logExit aborted 13' INT TERM logMessage taking snapshot ${name} # take a snapshot using hard links into temporary location # then move it into place atomically cp -lr ${data_dir}/index ${temp} mv ${temp} ${name} -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Incremental-replication...-tf3222946.html#a8952716 Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
