DREFLUSHANDPAUSE
Prepares IDOL Server for a snapshot (hot backup). IDOL Server flushes all files to disk and pauses indexing, so a snapshot of the data can be taken. This index action is most applicable if your IDOL storage is a SAN with disk-snapshot capabilities.
NOTE: The index ID returned from this index action (for example, INDEXID=41
) because you need this ID to restart the paused indexing queue.
After sending the index action, poll IDOL Server with the IndexerGetStatus action until the returned status is -16
(Indexing Paused). You can then perform the snapshot.
After the hot backup completes, restart the index queue, again with the IndexerGetStatus action and with the index ID returned from DREFLUSHANDPAUSE
. For example:
http://Hume:20000/action=IndexerGetStatus&index=41&IndexAction=restart
Example
http://Hume:9071/DREFLUSHANDPAUSE?
This index action instructs IDOL Server to flush all files to disk and pause indexing.
