As far as I know, the replication is supposed to delete the old directory

optimizing it? Are you rebuilding the index from scratch in the master?
Thanks for the response. Not adding/updating in slave. Not optimizing in
slave. YES sometimes rebuilding index from scratch in master.
I am on Linux, RedHat 5.
This server has also been occasionally been having out-of-disk problems,
which caused some replications to fail, an aborted replication could
also possibly account for the extra index directory, perhaps? (It now
has enough disk space to avoid that problem).
At this point, my main concern is getting things back in an expected
stable state at this point, eliminating the extra index dir, ideally
without downtime.
