Shawn Heisey commented on SOLR-4662:
------------------------------------

bq. does the ability to specify your data dir for each core do what you need?

As long the dataDir specified in a core properties file retains all its current 
capabilities relative to instanceDir, then yes, that will work nicely.  As I 
mentioned, I would like to see a config option (probably in solr.xml, name 
suggestion coreDirectory) to specify a relative or absolute path where it will 
look for auto-detected instanceDirs.  For the "thousands of cores" users, this 
will be very important, so that solr.solr.home isn't cluttered - it might have 
solr.xml (or its replacement) and a handful of directories like cores, lib, and 
maybe data.  I'd like to see that parameter default to "cores" but I am not 
opposed to it being "." or having no default value at all.

bq. Basically in <solr_home>/configs (TBD) there will be directories like 
"conf1", "conf2" etc.

I like this idea.  I would want to make sure that relative xincludes are 
possible, just as they currently are with config sets in zookeeper.  If the xml 
goes away and gets replaced by a properties file, including subconfigs won't be 
as important, but it would be nice if it were still possible.

                
> Finalize what we're going to do with solr.xml, auto-discovery, config sets.
