A quick question on configuring Solr with Hortonworks HDP. I have installed HDP and then installed HDP Search using the steps described under the link

- Within the various Solr config settings on Ambari, I am a bit confused on the role of "solr_config_conf_dir" parameter. At the moment, it only contains log4j.properties file. As HDPSearch is mainly meant to be used with SolrCloud, wondering what is the significance of this directory as the configurations are always maintained on ZooKeeper.
The text strings "solr_config_conf_dir" and "solr_config_data_dir" do not appear anywhere in the Lucene/Solr source code, even if I use a case-insensitive grep. Which must mean that it is specific to the third-party software you are using. You'll need to ask your question to the people who make that third-party software.
The log4j config is not in zookeeper. That will be found on each server. That file configures the logging framework at the JVM level, it is not specifically for Solr.
