Hi,
I am trying to evaluate distributed search for my project by splitting up
our single index on 2 shards with Solr 3.1
When I query the first solr server by passing the "shards" parameter, I get
correct search results from both shards.
(
http://server1:8080/solr/test/select/?shards=server1:8080/solr/test,server2:8080/solr/test&q=solr&start=0&rows=20
)
I want to avoid the use of this shards parameter in the http url and specify
it in solrconfig.xml as follows.
<requestHandler name="my_custom_handler" class="solr.SearchHandler"
default="true">
<str name="shards">server1:8080/solr/test,server2:8080/solr/test</str>
..
</requestHandler>
After adding the shards parameter in solrconfig.xml, I get search results
only from the first shard and not from the from the second one.
Am I missing any configuration ?
Also, can the urls with the shard parameter be load balanced for a failover
mechanism ?
