Hi All, It takes a long time to reindex our database and so I'd like to be able to backup the solr server. I'm running solr 3.6.1 using tomcat on debian squeeze and I'd like to be able to backup to a windows server that contains the rest of our backups.
There isn't much free space on the solr server. Enough for maybe 3 backups. Ideally I would like to be able to backup the index by pulling it similar to how a solr slave does but from the windows server. I heard that it uses something like rsync to do that. That way I could create a backup solution that backs up daily for 3 days, then holds onto one of those every 10 days or something similar. Any ideas on this would be appreciated. Eva
