I've seen several threads that are one or two years old saying that performing "kill -9" on the java process running Solr either CAN, or CAN NOT corrupt your index. The more recent ones seem to say that it CAN NOT, but before I bake a kill -9 into my control script (which first tries a normal "kill", of course), I'd like to hear the answer straight from the horse's mouth... I'm using Solr 1.4 nightly from about a month ago. Can I kill -9 without fear of having to rebuild my index?
Thanks! Michael
