Hello, I am learning more about replication as I maintain a large Solr 6
set of Solr servers configured for Master/Slave.
I noticed during some replication activities in addition to the original
index dir under the core name on the file system is a dir named "index"
with a timestamp. index.<timestamp>. Files are written to this dir with
the timestamp during replication. I am interested in how this works:
For every core replicating to it's master is this timestamped dir created?
Or is this timestamped dir created/used for only special circumstances? If
so, what?
- Are there cases that cause a full replication within Solr 6?
Is the original index dir removed and the time stamped dir renamed to
"index" after replication?
I initially figured all replication activities happened within the index
dir, but that does not appear to be the case.
Any tips, or documentation references would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Matt
