16.4 Synchronizing a High Availability Lucene Configuration

Whenever a Lucene node is down for a relatively short period of time (no more than a couple of days), you can synchronize it with other Lucene nodes whose index files are up to date.

  1. Make sure that the out-of-date Lucene node is running reliably again.

  2. Log in to the Teaming site as the Teaming administrator.

  3. Click Manage > Site Administration.

  4. Expand Manage the Search Index, then click Nodes.

    Lucene Nodes page with Deferred Update Log options

  5. To repair the out-of-date Lucene node, select Apply Deferred Update Log Records to the Index, then click Apply.

    The Deferred Update Log options disappear if the update is successful. If for some reason the deferred update log records cannot be applied to the index, you can rebuild the index, as described in Rebuilding the Lucene Index in Site Maintenance in the Novell Teaming 2.0 Administration Guide.
