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
Note: You must restart the index queue before you can stop the Content component.
http://Hume:20001/DREFLUSHANDPAUSE?
This index action uses port 20001 to instruct the IDOL Content Component on host Hume to flush all files to disk and pause indexing.
