Christine Poerschke commented on SOLR-11982:
--------------------------------------------
Hello [~emaijala],
thanks for opening this ticket and attaching a patch with tests and solr ref
guide documentation update.
I agree the ability to prefer certain replica types would be a nice new feature.
Question: would {{preferReplicaTypes=PULL,TLOG}} and
{{preferReplicaTypes=TLOG,PULL}} be equivalent or would there be a difference
i.e. the first type most preferred, the second type next preferred, and any
other unmentioned types all equivally unpreferred?
Thanks for clarifying (in the documentation update part of the patch) the
intended behaviour when both the existing {{preferLocalShards}} and the new
{{preferReplicaTypes}} are specified.
{code}
+This parameter overrides `preferLocalShards=true`. Both can be defined, but
replicas of preferred types are always selected over local shards.
{code}
{{preferReplicaTypes overrides preferLocalShards}} vs. {{preferLocalShards vs.
preferReplicaTypes}} - what might the use cases in either scenario be? Or
perhaps the two parameters could be mutually exclusive for less potential user
confusion and a simpler implementation. What do you think?
Specific patch feedback from taking only a quick look: there seem to be quite a
few whitespace change formatting changes which makes it tricky to 'see' the
actual changes. Steps along the following lines could be one way to try and
undo those whitespace reformats:
{code}
git checkout -b master-solr-11982 -t origin/master
git apply SOLR-11982.patch
git diff -w > temp.patch
git checkout HEAD --
git apply --ignore-whitespace temp.patch
{code}
> Add support for preferReplicaTypes parameter

> It would be nice to have the possibility to easily prefer certain replica
> types in a similar fashion to preferLocalShards. I'll be coming up with a
> patch that allows one to specify e.g. preferReplicaTypes=PULL,TLOG which
> would mean that NRT replicas wouldn't be hit with queries unless they're the
> only ones available.
