Backups using Java-based Replication (forced snapshot)
On the page http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrReplication, it says the
following:
"Force a snapshot on master.This is useful to take periodic
backups .command : http://master_host:port/solr/replication?
command=snapshoot"
This then puts the snapshot under the data directory. Perfectly
reasonable thing to do. However, is it possible to have it take in a
directory location and store the snapshot there? For instance, I may
want to have it write to a specific directory that is being watched
for backup data.
Thanks,
Grant

Thinking the same last week, as I was tailoring the snapshooter.sh script.
The data directory should be kept for the temp snapshot, as a way to ensure
linking is occurring on the same device.
snapshooter.sh
87 name=${data_dir}/${snap_name}
I think only this needs to be configurable for the final move.
