Jack,
Here is the ReplicationHandler definition from solrconfig.xml:
<requestHandler name="/replication" class="solr.ReplicationHandler" >
<lst name="master">
<str name="enable">${enable.master:false}</str>
<str name="replicateAfter">startup</str>
<str name="replicateAfter">commit</str>
<str name="replicateAfter">optimize</str>
<str
name="confFiles">solrconfig.xml,data-config.xml,schema.xml,stopwords.txt,synonyms.txt,elevate.xml</str>
</lst>
<lst name="slave">
<str name="enable">${enable.slave:false}</str>
<str name="masterUrl">http://${master.ip}:${master.port}/solr/${
solr.core.name}/replication</str>
<str name="pollInterval">00:01:00</str>
</lst>
</requestHandler>
The confFiles are under the dir:
/var/solr/application-cores/List/conf
and the external file fields are like:
/var/solr-data/List/external_*
Should I add
/var/solr-data/List/external_*
to confFiles like this?
<str
name="confFiles">solrconfig.xml,data-config.xml,schema.xml,stopwords.txt,synonyms.txt,elevate.xml,
/var/solr-data/List/external_*</str>
Also, can you tell me when (or whether) I need to do reloadCache on the
slave after the ext file fields are replicated?
Thx.
