Hi , we have a solr cloud instance with 8 nodes and 4 shards. We are starting to see that index size is growing so huge and when looked at the file system solr has created several copies of the index. However using solr admin, I could see its using only on the them.
This is what I see in solr admin. Index: /opt/solr/collections/aq-collection/data/index.20140725024044234 Master (Searching) 1406320016969 Gen - 81553 size -58.72 GB. But when I go in to the file system , This is how it looks. 16G index.20140527220456134 45G index.20140630001131038 4.6G index.20140630090031282 20G index.20140703192128959 1.3G index.20140703200948410 31G index.20140708162308859 52G index.20140716165801658 59G index.20140725024044234 4K index.properties 4K replication.properties it is actually pointing only to the index.20140725024044234, and using that for searching and indexing. The timstamps on other indexes are old(about a month or so) Can some one explain me why it created so many copies of the index(we did not create them manually). and how it can be prevented. Our solr instances are running on solaris VMs -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/SOLR-cloud-creating-multiple-copies-of-the-same-index-tp4149264.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
