Senthuran Sivananthan commented on SOLR-4370:
---------------------------------------------

Tested the patch on 4.2 from 
http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/lucene/dev/branches/branch_4x/ and found a 
couple issues when solr.commitwithin.softcommit = false.  The setting allows 
the slaves to replicate the indices and I can see the index files updated after 
commitWithin timeframe.

The issues are:

1/ Stats on the collection overview page doesn't get updated.  This includes 
the generation & version info.  An explicit commit (i.e. 
http://localhost:8983/solr/collection1/update?commit=true) will update the 
stats.

2/ Can't find the indexed docs on the master.  An explicit commit solves the 
issue.

I think the patch solves the original request but introduced a couple of 
side-effects.

> We need the ability to control the hard/soft commit behaviour of commitWithin 
> parameter.
> Since Solr 4.0, the commitWithin's performs a soft-commit which prevents 
> slaves from picking up the changes in a master/slave configuration.
> The behaviour I'm thinking is as follows:
> 1.  By default, commitWithin will trigger soft commits.
> 2.  But this behaviour can be overwritten in solrconfig.xml to allow 
> commitWithin to perform hard commits, which will allow slaves to pick up the 
> changes.
>       <commitWithin>
>               <forceHardCommit>true</forceHardCommit> <!-- default is false 
> -->
>       </commitWithin>
> Related to SOLR-4100
