Chris M. Hostetter commented on SOLR-9575:
------------------------------------------

i still feel like this is an anti-pattern that will almost certainly lead to 
confusion for folks who makes mistakes, but if the consensus is that it's 
better to "make the default easier" then to be able to "fail fast on user 
error" then i'm willing to stay out of the way.

Consider my previous -1 now a -0

> The user may not want to use Solr's default solr-home dir location -- most 
> likely to use a separate disk.  If you do this, there are two main problems:
> * solr.xml & zoo.cfg aren't there
> * configsets aren't there
> Of course you could copy it manually but that's an extra step, and it's 
> particularly annoying to add this step to a Docker setup.  Docker is all the 
> rage these days, and for good reason.  If I mount a volume at 
> /opt/solr/server/solr then it basically masks this part of the built-in Solr 
> image (thus making configsets completely invisible) and points to some place 
> that will be empty.  Solr obviously complains.  I could set the solr-home to 
> some other path that I mount, but Solr would still complain about an empty 
> solr-home -- no solr.xml
> If solr-home is empty, and if it's a dir other than the default solr-home, 
> then I think the solr-home should be initialized with solr.xml and zoo.cfg 
> copied from the default solr-home.  I think configsets should be referenced 
> from the default solr-home if there is no configsets dir in solr-home.
