19.3. Lucene Directory Configuration for Replicated Indexing
Define the following properties in the Hibernate configuration and in the Persistence unit configuration file when using standard JPA. For instance, to change all of the default storage indexes the following property could be configured:
hibernate.search.default.directory_provider=infinispan
This may also be performed on unique indexes. In the following example
tickets
and actors
are index names:
hibernate.search.tickets.directory_provider=infinispan hibernate.search.actors.directory_provider=filesystem
Lucene's
DirectoryProvider
uses the following options to configure the cache names:
locking_cachename
- Cache name where Lucene's locks are stored. Defaults toLuceneIndexesLocking
.data_cachename
- Cache name where Lucene's data is stored, including the largest data chunks and largest objects. Defaults toLuceneIndexesData
.metadata_cachename
- Cache name where Lucene's metadata is stored. Defaults toLuceneIndexesMetadata
.
To adjust the name of the locking cache to
CustomLockingCache
use the following:
hibernate.search.default.directory_provider.locking_cachname="CustomLockingCache"
In addition, large files of the index are split into a smaller, configurable, chunk. It is often recommended to set the index's
chunk_size
to the highest value that may be handled efficiently by the network.
Hibernate Search already contains internally a default configuration which uses replicated caches to hold the indexes.
It is important that if more than one node writes to the index at the same time, configure a JMS backend. For more information on the configuration, see the Hibernate Search documentation.
Important
In settings where distribution mode is needed to configure, the
LuceneIndexesMetadata
and LuceneIndexesLocking
caches should always use replication mode in all the cases.
