two instances of Solr (either in sevlert containers or embeded instances) should be able to use the same index simultenously under the same conditions as any two isntances of Lucene applications -- if you try doing "write" operations (update, deletes, optimizes) from two differnet apps, one will block the other and you might get a lock timeout. if you are doing this, pay careful attention to the lockFactory option recently added to Solr on the trunk (the default in the last stable release *should* work okay unless you are using NFS or something like that) -Hoss
