Hi,
It's been a couple of days now and I haven't heard anything on this
topic, while there has been substantial list traffic otherwise.
Am I asking in the wrong place? Was I unclear?
I know there are people out there that have used/are using Lucene in a
clustered environment. I am just looking for any sort of feedback
(general or specific) about clustering lucene as well as filesystem
compatibility (windows shares, NFS, etc.).
Thanks again,
-Zach

Hello all,
First a little background - we are developing a clustered application
that will in part leverage Lucene to provide index and search
capabilities. We have already spent time investigating various index
storage implementations (database vs. filesystem) and we've decided for
performance reasons to go with a filesystem index storage scheme.
That said, I have read back through the archives a bit and noticed that
the support for index storage on NFS is still experimental (e.g. the
latest bugfixes have not made it out to an official, stable release). I
realize most of the issues related to using a shared file system revolve
around locking, and I haven't seen much about the maturity of locking
for other network filesystems.
I was wondering if anyone has tried any other networked filesystems or
had any recommendations. We have clients who would be doing this on both
Windows and Unix/Linux so any insight there would be appreciated as well
- it can be assumed that across any cluster the operating system use
would be homogeneous (i.e. all nodes are on windows and would use
windows shares, or all nodes are on linux and would use xyz filesystem).
Thanks in advance,
