I have experimented with creating the data for an image pyramid. I have created 
a set of files in a folder structure like in the following example:

Pyramid:
    0:
        12:
             GeoTiffs
        13:
             GeoTiffs
        14:
             GeoTiffs
    1:
        6:
             GeoTiffs
        7:
             GeoTiffs
    2:
        3:
             GeoTiffs

If I try to create an image pyramid through Geoserver using the ImagePyramid 
plugin, it creates a pyramid from level 0 only and returns without errors. The 
shape file from level 0 seems to include all the Geotiffs on that level. I 
would expect however, that the pyramid included level 1 and 2 also, but it 
doesn't.

It seems as it doesn't see the two other levels, so is there a file name 
convention for the Geotiffs when using Geoserver to build the pyramid? 
Currently my naming scheme is <tilesize>_<northing>_<easting>.tif

And is there another way to build the pyramid without using Geoserver to build 
the index files? I have a rather large set of files and I don't want the 
geoserver to use resources on creating the indexes if I can do it on a 
workstation instead.

I have found this blog entry [1] by Simone, but again it is using the Geoserver 
and I couldn't even get it to work. => Could not list layers for this store, an 
error occurred retrieving them: Unable to acquire a reader for this coverage 
with format: ImageMosaic
