issues with bleve / bolt on read only NFS #19

Open mjpitz opened 2 years ago

mjpitz commented 2 years ago

Alright, this was a rather aspirational first use case... but figured I'd document it

When using the default storage engine with blevesearch (boltdb, specifically bbolt), mounting a read-only NFS volume interferes with the technologies ability to obtain file locks (even in a read-only mode which I find odd). I need to dig into this a bit more to determine if it's an NFS limitation or how boltdb manages locks...

Ideally, this solution is great for solutions who do not need locks for read only connections...
