@merrimanr There was a bit of discussion around this in #934, and it looks
like the conclusion was that since HDP Search didn't support Solr 6 at the
time, that we would hold off on it. Given that HDP Search 3.0 does support
Solr 6, it might be worth revisiting that discussion.
Personally, I'm okay with doing full dev off HDP Search (and having Ambari
be able to setup config as needed automagically), as long as indexing can still
be configured to work with a non HDP Solr instance.
Re: this ticket in particular, I'd do that as a separate PR. Would we
still want to use these scripts as part of that? If we still want the scripts,
I'd want them documented as part of this ticket (even if it's not in the
perfect place).
There was also a hesitance on relying on any mpack (internal or external)
explicitly in that discussion. I'm unsure if that objection extended to a full
dev or not. @cestella Can you expand on your POV?
