Jason Gerlowski commented on SOLR-16542:
----------------------------------------
I'm very much for the simplification that this ticket represents - maintaining
both of those approaches longterm for processing and state management is
insane! Thanks for picking this up Vinayak! But I _do_ have a few questions
for you and David:
# Is there a writeup anywhere of how the DistributedRunner stuff works? What
it's benefits are, how it manages ZK state, etc. Personally I'm coming to this
effort a little late and am having some trouble getting caught up.
# Would it be safer to make DistributedRunner processing the default for a few
releases before we remove the option to use the overseer altogether? Or maybe
that's the plan here - to only merge this change to 'main', and open a
different PR for branch_9x that switch the default so that it gets some usage
before it's the only option in 10.0.
Lastly:
bq. Even use of DistributedCollectionConfigSetCommandRunner along with its
executor is debatable ("async" is a dubious need).
Dubious generally? Or for configset operations specifically? IMO async is
absolutely necessary for collection operations. (Imagine doing a shardsplit
without async!). And it's definitely nice to have, even for configset
operations.

> {{distributedCollectionConfigSetExecution}} is a boolean setting on
> solr.xml/solrCloud that switches *both* Collection API *and* ConfigSet API
> processing between Overseer based (when =false) vs distributed (when =true).
> In this issue, remove the Overseer based processing of ConfigSets, thus
> always use DistributedCollectionConfigSetCommandRunner instead for ConfigSet
> processing, regardless of the {{distributedCollectionConfigSetExecution}}
> boolean setting. Namely, OverseerConfigSetMessageHandler would be removed.
> The boolean toggle would henceforth only toggle the "collection" aspect of
> wether to do distributed processing vs Overseer (centralized).
