i am wondering how config files like synonyms.txt or stopwords.txt can be refreshed without restarting of solr, maybe also how changes in solrconfig.xml or schema.xml can be refreshed?
i can use a multicore setup - i just tested it with a "multicore"-setup with one one core (core0), there i can call /solr/admin/cores?action=RELOAD&core=core0 and changes in synonyms.txt are getting active. i also understand that this should work in a master/slave setup, where configfiles under /conf are replicated (at least when doing a a commit or optimize on an index). but whats with a standard setup? is there a way to do this? we have not yet decided how we run our production servers. at the moment were developing a enterprise search for our intranet... markus
