[Xapian-discuss] Care of databases

[Frank J Bruzzaniti]

I'm looking for a little advice regarding how robust the flint databases 
are and what should be done if omindex's or xapian-compact operations 
are interrupted.

E.g.

If omindex was to be interrupted halfway through indexing a folder how 
should it be handled.
Should I just start re-indexing the folder again?
Or should I delete the database and start again?

What if xapian-compact was to be interrupted should I delete the 
"target" database of the merge and leave the source databases intact?

Generally are there any circumstances that require the database to be 
deleted?

Thanks,

Frank
