Infra provided us with two new nodes – lucene-solr-3 and lucene-solr-4 – to
replace the old ones. They come with upgraded hardware:

16GB -> 32GB RAM
> 4CPU -> 16CPU
> 256/350GB -> 500GB disk


Once we are ready to turn off the old nodes, I'll respond to the Jira issue.

*What steps are still remaining before we can turn off the old nodes?*

Best,
Christos
