Class CheckIndex

java.lang.Object

org.apache.lucene.index.CheckIndex

All Implemented Interfaces:

Closeable, AutoCloseable

public final class CheckIndex
extends Object
implements Closeable

Basic tool and API to check the health of an index and write a new segments file that removes reference to problematic segments.

As this tool checks every byte in the index, on a large index it can take quite a long time to run.

WARNING: This API is experimental and might change in incompatible ways in the next release.

Please make a complete backup of your index before using this to exorcise corrupted documents from your index!

Constructor Detail

CheckIndex

public CheckIndex(Directory dir)
           throws IOException

Create a new CheckIndex on the directory.

Throws:

IOException

CheckIndex

public CheckIndex(Directory dir,
                  Lock writeLock)

Expert: create a directory with the specified lock. This should really not be used except for unit tests!!!! It exists only to support special tests (such as TestIndexWriterExceptions*), that would otherwise be more complicated to debug if they had to close the writer for each check.

Method Detail

close

public void close()
           throws IOException

Specified by:

close in interface Closeable

Specified by:

close in interface AutoCloseable

Throws:

IOException

setDoSlowChecks

public void setDoSlowChecks(boolean v)

If true, additional slow checks are performed. This will likely drastically increase time it takes to run CheckIndex!

doSlowChecks

public boolean doSlowChecks()

See setDoSlowChecks(boolean).

setFailFast

public void setFailFast(boolean v)

If true, just throw the original exception immediately when corruption is detected, rather than continuing to iterate to other segments looking for more corruption.

getFailFast

public boolean getFailFast()

See setFailFast(boolean).

getChecksumsOnly

public boolean getChecksumsOnly()

See getChecksumsOnly().

setChecksumsOnly

public void setChecksumsOnly(boolean v)

If true, only validate physical integrity for all files. Note that the returned nested status objects (e.g. storedFieldStatus) will be null.

setInfoStream

public void setInfoStream(PrintStream out,
                          boolean verbose)

Set infoStream where messages should go. If null, no messages are printed. If verbose is true then more details are printed.

setInfoStream

public void setInfoStream(PrintStream out)

Set infoStream where messages should go. See setInfoStream(PrintStream,boolean).

checkIndex

public CheckIndex.Status checkIndex()
                             throws IOException

Returns a CheckIndex.Status instance detailing the state of the index.

As this method checks every byte in the index, on a large index it can take quite a long time to run.

WARNING: make sure you only call this when the index is not opened by any writer.

Throws:

IOException

checkIndex

public CheckIndex.Status checkIndex(List<String> onlySegments)
                             throws IOException

Returns a CheckIndex.Status instance detailing the state of the index.

Parameters:

onlySegments - list of specific segment names to check

As this method checks every byte in the specified segments, on a large index it can take quite a long time to run.

Throws:

IOException

testSort

WARNING: This API is experimental and might change in incompatible ways in the next release.

exorciseIndex

public void exorciseIndex(CheckIndex.Status result)
                   throws IOException

Repairs the index using previously returned result from checkIndex(). Note that this does not remove any of the unreferenced files after it's done; you must separately open an IndexWriter, which deletes unreferenced files when it's created.

WARNING: this writes a new segments file into the index, effectively removing all documents in broken segments from the index. BE CAREFUL.

Throws:

IOException

assertsOn

public static boolean assertsOn()

Check whether asserts are enabled or not.

Returns:

true iff asserts are enabled

main

public static void main(String[] args)
                 throws IOException,
                        InterruptedException

Command-line interface to check and exorcise corrupt segments from an index.

Run it like this:

    java -ea:org.apache.lucene... org.apache.lucene.index.CheckIndex pathToIndex [-exorcise] [-verbose] [-segment X] [-segment Y]
    

• -exorcise: actually write a new segments_N file, removing any problematic segments. *LOSES DATA*
• -segment X: only check the specified segment(s). This can be specified multiple times, to check more than one segment, eg -segment _2 -segment _a. You can't use this with the -exorcise option.

WARNING: -exorcise should only be used on an emergency basis as it will cause documents (perhaps many) to be permanently removed from the index. Always make a backup copy of your index before running this! Do not run this tool on an index that is actively being written to. You have been warned!

Run without -exorcise, this tool will open the index, report version information and report any exceptions it hits and what action it would take if -exorcise were specified. With -exorcise, this tool will remove any segments that have issues and write a new segments_N file. This means all documents contained in the affected segments will be removed.

This tool exits with exit code 1 if the index cannot be opened or has any corruption, else 0.

Throws:

IOException

InterruptedException

parseOptions

public static CheckIndex.Options parseOptions(String[] args)

Parse command line args into fields

Parameters:

args - The command line arguments

Returns:

An Options struct

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if any of the CLI args are invalid

doCheck

public int doCheck(CheckIndex.Options opts)
            throws IOException,
                   InterruptedException

Actually perform the index check

Parameters:

opts - The options to use for this check

Returns:

0 iff the index is clean, 1 otherwise

Throws:

IOException

InterruptedException
