: I'm wondering what's the best way to completely change a big index : without loosing any requests.
use the snapinstaller script -- or adopt the same atomic copying approach it uses. : - Between the two mv's, the directory dir does not exists, which can : cause some solr failure. this shouldn't cause any failure unless you tell Solr to try and reload turing the move (ie: you send it a commit) ... either way an atomic copy in place of a mv should work much better. -Hoss
