Possible UI issue after upgrade to 4.1

2013-01-23 Thread Joseph Dale
Please see the linked screen shot. The DIH works but the UI says its not 
configured.

Possible UI issue after upgrade to 4.1

2013-01-23 Thread Joseph Dale
I upgraded to solr 4.1 from 4.0 to take advantage of some solrcloud 
improvements, but now it seems that the DIH UI is broken. I have a screen shot 
but the list seems to block emails w/ links. I will try to describe my issue:

* DIH it self works, via commands & the buttons on the UI.
* The DIH UI says "Dataimport XML-Configuration is not valid"

Any ideas?

Thanks

Unload the cores you want on the leader. (Using the cores api, not the 
collections api). That will force a leader election, afterwards simply readd 
them.

To be more clear lets say bob it the leader of core 1. On bob do a 
/admin/cores?action=unload&name=core1. This removes the core/shard from bob, 
giving the other servers a chance to grab leader props.

Re: Is it possible to manually select a shard leader in a running SolrCloud?

With solrclound all cores are collections. The collections API it just a 
wrapper to call the core api a million times with one command.

to /solr/admin/cores?action=CREATE&name=core1&collection=core1&shard=1

Basically your "creating" the shard again, after leader props have gone out. 
Solr will check ZK and find a core meeting that description, then simply get a 
copy of the index from the leader of that shard.
