Strange error when I try to copy....

[Bruno Mannina <bm...@free.fr>]

Dear Solr Users,

I use since several years SOLR and since two weeks, I have a problem 
when I try to copy my solr index.

My solr index is around 180Go (~100 000 000 docs, 1 doc ~ 3ko)

My method to save my index every Sunday:

- I stop SOLR 5.4 on Ubuntu 14.04LTS - 16Go - i3-2120 CPU @ 3.30Ghz

- I do a simple directory copy /data to my HDD backup (from 2To SATA to 
2To SATA directly connected to the Mothercard).

All files are copied fine but one not ! the biggest (~65Go) failed.

I have the message : "Error splicing file: Input/output error"

I tried also on windows (I have a dualboot), I have "redondance error".

I check my HDD, no error, I check the file "_k46.fdt" no error, I can 
delete docs, add docs, my database can be reach and works fine.

Is someone have an idea to backup my database ? or why I have this error ?

Many thanks for your help,

Sincerely,

Bruno

Hi Shawn,

First thanks for your answer, effectively it's a little bit clear.
Tonight I will check the file system of my hdd.

And sorry for this question out of solr subject.

Cdlt,
Bruno

This isn't a Solr issue, which is easy to determine by the fact that
you've stopped Solr and it's not even running.  It's a problem with the
filesystem, probably the destination filesystem.

The most common reason that I have found for this error is a destination
filesystem that is incapable of holding a large file -- which can happen
when the disk is formatted fat32 instead of ntfs or a Linux filesystem. 
You can have a 2TB filesystem with fat32, but no files larger than 4GB
-- so your 65GB file won't fit.

I think you're going to need to reformat that external drive with
another filesystem.  If you choose NTFS, you'll be able to use the disk
on either Linux or Windows.

Thanks,
Shawn
