Hi, I have the following requirement for SOLR Collection Distribution using Embedded Solr with the Jetty server:
I have different data folders for multiple instances of SOLR within the Same application. Im using the same SOLR_HOME with a single bin and conf folder. My query is: 1)Is is possible to have the same SOLR_HOME for multiple solr instances and still be able to achieve Solr Distribution? (As i understand that we need to have differnet rsync port for different solr instances) 2)Can i get some more information about how to start this rsyncd daemon and which is the best way of doing it i.e. to start during system reboot or doing it manually? 3)Let me know if my understanding is correct. We require 1 Master Server and a minimum of 1 slave server. The master server and the slave server cannot be running on the same machine. Am i right? In the case of the SOLR Distribution, if the SOLR server acts as the Master server then how about this slave server ? Is it the Application server which calls the Master SOLR Server acts as slave server? 4)I observe the file scripts.conf for master server: solr_port=8983 rsyncd_port=18983 +Enable and start rsync: rsyncd-enable; rsyncd-start +Run snapshooter: snapshooter Just to confirm is it mandatory that the solr master server should have the solr_port as 8983 only? 5) How do we enable and start rsync? The link to SolrCollectionDistributionScripts mentions about installing rsyncd daemon either during system boot time or by manually. Which method is more preferrable? How do we achieve this as iam not clear on this? 6) How do we setup crontab to run snappuller and snapinstaller periodically? Regards, Dilip TS Starmark Services Pvt. Ltd.
