I’d just file a JIRA. Merge, like optimize and a few other things, were never tested or considered in early SolrCloud days. It’s used in the HDFS stuff, but in that case, the index is merged to all replicas and no recovery is necessary.
If you want to make the local filesystem merge work well with SolrCloud, sounds like we should write a test and make it work. -- Mark Miller about.me/markrmiller On August 19, 2014 at 1:20:54 PM, Timothy Potter (thelabd...@gmail.com) wrote: > Hi, > > Using the coreAdmin mergeindexes command to merge an index into a > leader (SolrCloud mode on 4.9.0) and the replica does not do a snap > pull from the leader as I would have expected.
