If you are using the DataImportHandler, you will not be able to search new data until the full-import or delta-import is complete and the update is committed. When I do a full reindex, it takes about 5 hours, and until it is finished, I cannot search it.

I have not tried to issue a manual commit in the middle of an import to see whether that makes data inserted up to that point searchable, but I would not expect that to work.

If you need this kind of functionality, you may need to change your build system so that a full import clears the index manually and then does a series of delta-import batches.

Hi,
Can I perform searches against the index while it is being imported? Does importing add 1 document at a time or will solr make a temporary index and
switch to that index when indexing is done?
Thanks, Tri
