Robert Muir commented on LUCENE-5958:
-------------------------------------
I think when things go wrong like this, its ideal for the user to get them asap
(e.g. next addDocument, not commit or whatever). So I think we should close the
writer (like closedbyinterruptexception in java when state gets messed up), so
the next ensureOpen fails.
Instead of a hitOOM-type boolean, I think we should save any exception/error
that causes this, and ensureOpen passes it to ACE as the cause. In the general
case it will be null.
> OOM or exceptions during checkpoint make IndexWriter have a bad day

> Project: Lucene - Core
> Issue Type: Bug
> Reporter: Robert Muir

> During finishCommit(), we run checkpoint after we wrote the commit to disk,
> but if things go wrong here (e.g. IOError when IFD deletes a pending file,
> OOM), then everything will go wrong (we won't even properly incref things,
> and may end out deleting wrong files if the user calls rollback, leaving a
> corrupt index).
