: 1. What is the userId to be given in scripts.conf file. it's just a username that the scripts will try to sudo to if specified ... it's a way of ensuring that all of the actions the script takes (logging, creating files, etc...) are executed by a specific unix user no matter who runs the script.
: 2. How & where to run the scripts given in bin folder under solr? you can run them via cron, or manually. : 3. Where to mention if we want to take the back up of indexes under a : particular core or all the indexes under all cores? none of the scripts are multicore aware ... when you run them, you'll have to point them at the specifc instanceDir for the core you want to operate on (if i remember correctly, you can just have a seperate scripts.conf for each core) -Hoss
