Should the two master servers not agree on the schema, most specifically schema elements on server A are missing from server B, the index generation process will fail silently, and return a message saying "Finished indexing" above. This fools the admin into thinking the attribute has been successfully indexed when no indexing took place. Hopefully this will help someone else. Regards, Graham --
