: Interesting idea. I must investigate if this is a possibility - eg. how often : will a document be reindexed from one shard to another - this is actually a : possibility as a consequence of the way we configure our shards :-/ : : Thanks for the input! I was still hoping for a way to get that info from : Solr. The idea is the same: facet the Solr-shard position of each : document...
you could configure this field with a 'default' attribute in the schema.xml which is differnet per shard and then never worry about it -- whatever machine it indexed on it will get that vlaue. managing the different schema.xml's might be a pain (does system property substitution work on schema.xml? i can't remember) but the same thing could be done with a simple little UpdateProcessor. -Hoss
