Shawn Heisey commented on SOLR-1143:
------------------------------------

I tried this patch, then we put SOLR-1537 into production on 1.5-dev.  When we 
finally abandoned our old search software and reclaimed its hardware, we 
decided to use 1.4.1 and a distributed+replicated architecture with a load 
balancer.  IMHO, production setups require true fault tolerance where a single 
failure produces no service degradation beyond slightly slower queries.  These 
patches are a band-aid.

> If any shard is down in a distributed search, a ConnectException it thrown.
> Here's a little patch that change this behaviour: if we can't connect to a 
> shard (ConnectException), we get partial results from the active shards. As 
> for TimeOut parameter (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-502), we 
> set the parameter "partialResults" at true.
> This patch also adresses a problem expressed in the mailing list about a year 
> ago 
> (http://www.nabble.com/partialResults,-distributed-search---SOLR-502-td19002610.html)
> We have a use case that needs this behaviour and we would like to know your 
> thougths about such a behaviour? Should it be the default behaviour for 
> distributed search?
