Upgratding the Index from 1.4.1 to 3.4 using replication

["Nemani, Raj" <Ra...@turner.com>]

All,

 

We are planning to upgrade our Solr instance from 1.4.1 to 3.4.  We
understand that we need to re-index all the documents given the changes
to the index structure.  If we setup a replication pipe with 1.4.1 as
the Master and 3.4 as the salve (with an empty index) is there would the
replication process convert the index from 1.4.1 format to 3.4 format?

 

Thanks so much in advance for your time and help.

Raj

I don't think it'll work as I've tried this approach myself and the blocking
issue was that Solr 1.4.1 use a different javabin version than Solr 3.4 (I
think it's 1 vs 2) so the master and the slave(s) can't communicate using
standard replication handler and thus can't exchange information and data
about the index.
My 2 cents.

I very much doubt that would work:  different versions of Lucene involved, and Solr replication does just a streamed file copy, nothing fancy.
