Shalin Shekhar Mangar commented on SOLR-6671:
---------------------------------------------

The totalSpace and usableSpace reported by Metrics API are still based on 
coreRootDirectory (which is used as the instance dir for individual cores). So 
we should expose the data home's disk metrics as well. We can introduce new 
metrics such as dataHomeTotalSpace and dataHomeUsableSpace? Also, it'd be great 
if there was a method one could call to get the data home without needing a 
CoreDescriptor first.

> Introduce a solr.data.home as root dir for all data

> Many users prefer to deploy code, config and data on separate disk locations, 
> so the default of placing the indexes under 
> {{$\{solr.solr.home\}/$\{solr.core.name\}/data}} is not always wanted.
> In a multi-core/collection system, there is not much help in the 
> {{solr.data.dir}} option, as it would set the {{dataDir}} to the same folder 
> for all collections. One workaround, if you don't want to hardcode paths in 
> your {{solrconfig.xml}}, is to specify the {{dataDir}} property in each 
> {{solr.properties}} file.
> A more elegant solution would be to introduce a new Java-option 
> {{solr.data.home}} which would be to data the same as {{solr.solr.home}} is 
> for config. If set, all collections would default their {{dataDir}} as 
> {{$\{solr.data.home\)/$\{solr.core.name\}/data}}
