The solr morphline jars are integrated with solr by way of the solr specific solr/contrib/map-reduce module.
Ingestion from Flume into Solr is available here: http://flume.apache.org/FlumeUserGuide.html#morphlinesolrsink FWIW, for our purposes we see no role for DataImportHandler anymore. Wolfgang.
