Hello all, In our production environment, we currently utilize Solr Cloud 8.10 with 8 nodes/shards (i.e., 8 different servers), without any authentication plugin.
*Our New Requirement:* To implement Basic Authentication on Solr Cloud to prevent unauthorized access. Here are the steps we have undertaken in our development environment:* [we used Single Server, but nodes/shards with 8 different ports]* 1. Created the security.json file. 2. Configured and created different users as required. 3. Uploaded the security.json file to Zookeeper. Surprisingly, *authentication is enabled on all nodes/shards* immediately after pushing the security.json file to Zookeeper. However, according to the Solr Documentation, a restart of each node is required for authentication changes to take effect across all nodes/shards. Our main query is, what is the correct approach for making authentication changes live on all Nodes/Shards? *Thanks & Regards,* *Uday Kumar*
