Thanks to previous help. I have a ZK ensemble of three nodes running. I have uploaded the config for my collection and the solr.xml file. I have Solr installed on three machines.
I think my next steps are: Start up each Solr instance: bin/solr start -c -z "zoo1:2181,zoo2:2181,zoo3:2181" // I have ZK_Hosts set to my ZK's, but the documentation seems to say I need to provide the list here to prevent embedded ZK from getting used. From one of the Solr instances create a collection: bin/solr create -c nameofuploadedconfig -s 3 -rf 2 //for example. The documentation I think implies that all of the Solr instances are automatically set with the collection. There is no further action at this point? Thanks. -S
