You've got it right. Here's a summary: - "status" = "busy" means its in-process. - "status" = "idle" means its finished (success or failure). - You can drill down further by looking at sub-elements under "statusMessages" : > if there is <str name="Aborted" /> , it means the last import was cancelled > with "command=abort" > look at the body of <str name="" />. o If it begins with "Indexing completed.", then it finished with a success. o If it begins with "Indexing failed.", then it finished with a failure.
Just be careful to test your script whenever you change DIH versions. This status screen isn't the best and no doubt it will change sometime in the future. Also, keep in mind that as soon as the next import begins the old statuses get lost so you'll need to plan your script runs around that. Someday it'll be nice if we can come up with a better way than this to programitically interact with DIH...

Added/Updated: 603378 documents. Deleted 0 documents.</str> failure: <str name="">Indexing completed. Added/Updated: 603378 documents. Deleted 0 documents.</str> thank you, -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/possible-status-codes-from-solr-during-a-DIH-data-import-process-tp3987110.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
