Also I am interested in knowing how to create a collection where the replica and the same shard do not reside on the same machine. So, basically, shard1 with replica2 in one machine and shard2 with replica1 on the other machine. Is that by default when creating a collection of 2 shards and 2 replic

Connecting to one Zookeeper node is fine. Until that node fails. Then what does Solr do for cluster information? The entire point of Zookeeper is to share that information in a reliable, fault-tolerant way. Solr can talk to any Zookeeper node and get the same information. wunder Walter Underwo

Correct me if I am wrong but my understanding is that even connecting to one zookeeper should be enough as internally that zookeeper will sync Solr server info to other zookeepers in the ensemble (as long as that zookeeper belongs to an ensemble). Having said that, if that particular zookeeper goes

Why would that link answer the question? Each Solr connects to one Zookeeper node. If that node goes down, Zookeeper is still available, but the node will need to connect to a new node. Specifying only one zk node is a single point of failure. If that node goes down, Solr cannot continue opera

It is highly recommended to list all, but for testing, you might be able to get away giving only one. If the list doesn’t work, then you might even want to look into zookeeper and see whether they are setup properly. Bosco On 11/29/15, 11:51 AM, "Salman Ansari" wrote: >but the point is:

For 2a, assuming you want to tell Solr where to store the local indexes, in SolrCloud I have generally updated the solr.in.sh for the variable SOLR_HOME=. Make sure solr.xml is in that folder and optionally zoo.cfg. For 2b, as Erick mentioned, you need all three params. Solr by default will exp
