In Ultraseek, each collection (core) has a gathering method associated with it, for example, a web spider. There were two special collection types, a mirror collection, which copied an index from a different server, and a merge collection, which combined other collections.
See the "Creating Collections" chapter in the on line docs: http://www.ultraseek.com/support/docs/UltraseekAdmin/wwhelp/wwhimpl/js/html/ wwhelp.htm wunder On 6/30/09 10:55 AM, "Erik Hatcher" <e...@ehatchersolutions.com> wrote: > > On Jun 30, 2009, at 1:51 PM, dar...@ontrenet.com wrote: >> It seems the merge index request (admin or lucene tool) expects the >> indexes to already be local. >> >> Maybe in the future I can specify the URL to the remote indexes for >> Solr >> to merge.
