Artem Russakovskii commented on SOLR-1143: ------------------------------------------ +1 for importance of this feature. If I have 10 shards, I should be able to handle 1 of them going down without returning 0 results to the user. > Return partial results when a connection to a shard is refused > -------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-1143 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-1143 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: search > Reporter: Nicolas Dessaigne > Fix For: 1.4 > > Attachments: SOLR-1143.patch > > > If any shard is down in a distributed search, a ConnectException it thrown. > Here's a little patch that change this behaviour: if we can't connect to a > shard (ConnectException), we get partial results from the active shards. As > for TimeOut parameter (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-502), we > set the parameter "partialResults" at true. > This patch also adresses a problem expressed in the mailing list about a year > ago > (http://www.nabble.com/partialResults,-distributed-search---SOLR-502-td19002610.html) > We have a use case that needs this behaviour and we would like to know your > thougths about such a behaviour? Should it be the default behaviour for > distributed search? -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
