I had quite a lot of "fun" figuring out how to install Solr Cloud. Because it uses Zookeeper, the Solr folks don't say much about Zookeeper and the Zookeeper folks don't say much about Solr.
I finally put my notes together and posted them online for download. There is one in the set called something like 6.1_final.txt and that will contain a step-by-step way to set up the Solr Cloud. You can modify for your situation. Hope this helps... https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/actual-solrcloud-vms-zookeeper-nodes-john-bickerstaff?trk=hp-feed-article-title-publish Oh, by the way, you MUST have a minimum of 3 Zookeepers as far as I know, due to the need to elect a "leader" if one goes down. >From the zookeeper site: Three ZooKeeper servers is the minimum recommended size for an ensemble, and we also recommend that they run on separate machines. See this: https://zookeeper.apache.org/doc/r3.1.2/zookeeperAdmin.html Virtual box and Linux VMs are free (except for the time to build them) and you may want to take that route instead of doing everything on the same machine, but that's up to you...
