Hi You can use the "details" command to check the status of replication. http://localhost:8983/solr/core_name/replication?command=details
The command returns an xml output and look out for the "isReplicating" field in the output. Keep running the command in a loop until the flag becomes false. Thats when you know its done. I would also recommend you to check the # of docs in the output at source/destination after the replication to be sure HTH On Thu, Mar 27, 2014 at 6:35 AM, Fermin Silva <ferm...@olx.com> wrote: > Hi, > > we are moving to native replication with SOLR 3.5.1. > Because we want to control the replication from another program (a cron > job), we decided to curl the slave to issue a fetchIndex command. > > The problem we have is that the curl returns immediately, while the > replication still goes in the background. > We need to know when the replication is done, and then resume the cron job. > > Is there a way to block on the replication call until it's done similar to > waitForSearcher=true when committing ? > If not, what other possibilities we have? > > Just in case, here is the solrconfig part in the slave (we pass masterUrl > in the curl url) > > <requestHandler name="/replication" class="solr.ReplicationHandler"> > <lst name="slave"> > <str name="masterUrl"></str> > </lst> > </requestHandler> > > > Many thanks in advance > > -- > Fermin Silva > -- Best -- C
