Hi Artem, I noticed this recently too. I created a JIRA issue here:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-5040 Cheers, Mark Artem Karpenko <a.karpe...@oxseed.com> writes: > Hi, > > when making a backup snapshot using "/replication?command=backup" > call, a snapshot directory is created and starts to be filled, but > appropriate .lock file is not created so it's impossible to check when > backup is finished. I've taken a look at code and it seems to me that > lock.obtain() call is missing: there is > > public class SnapShooter { > ... > void createSnapshot(final IndexCommit indexCommit, int numberToKeep, > ReplicationHandler replicationHandler) { > ... > lock = lockFactory.makeLock(directoryName + ".lock"); > ... > lock.release(); > > so lock file is not actually created. This is Solr 4.3.1, release > notes for Solr 4.4 do not include this problem. > > Should I raise a JIRA issue for this? Or maybe you could suggest more > reliable way to make a backup? > > Regards, > Artem. -- Mark Triggs <m...@dishevelled.net>
