Rolling Deploys and SolrCloud

ftware. So to ask a concrete question, is it possible to not use zk for config distribution, i.e. keep the config local to each shard? Mike Schultz -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/Rolling-Deploys-and-SolrCloud-tp4026212.html Sent from the Solr - User mai

Re: Rolling Deploys and SolrCloud

Ok, that makes sense and it's probably workable, but, it's still more awkward than having code and configuration deployed together to individual machines. For example, for a deploy of new software/config we need to 1) first upload config to zK. then 2) deploy new software to the nodes. What ab

Solr 4.0 doesn't send qt parameter to shards

Can someone explain the logic of not sending the qt parameter down to the shards? I see from here that qt is handled as a special case for ResultGrouping: http://lucidworks.lucidimagination.com/display/solr/Result+Grouping where there is a special shard.qt parameter. in 3.x solrconfig.xml support

Re: n values in one fieldType

It depends on what kind of behavior you're looking for. if for your queries the order of the 6 integer values doesn't matter you could do: then you could query with ORed or ANDed integer values over that field. If the order matters but you always query on the "set" of 6 values, then you turn y

Adding replacement node to 4.x cluster with down node

I have a 4.x cluster that is 10 wide and 4 deep. One of the nodes of a shard went down. I provisioned a replacement node and introduced into the cluster, but it ended up on a random shard, not the shard with the downed node. Is there a maintenance step I need to perform before introducing a node

Re: Anyone else see this error when running unit tests?

Yes. Just today actually. I had some unit test based on AbstractSolrTestCase which worked in 4.0 but in 4.1 they would fail intermittently with that error message. The key to this behavior is found by looking at the code in the lucene class: TestRuleSetupAndRestoreClassEnv. I don't understand i

Re: Adding replacement node to 4.x cluster with down node

Just to clarify, I want to be able to replace the down node with a host with a different name. If I were repairing that particular machine and replacing it, there would be no problem. But I don't have control over the name of my replacement machine. -- View this message in context: http://lu

Solr4x: Separate Indexer and Query Instances for Performance

Solr 3x had a master/slave architecture which meant that indexing did not happen in the same process as querying, in fact normally not even on the same machine. The querier only needed to copy down snapshots of the new index files and commit them. Great isolation for maximum query performance and

Index vs. Query Time Aware Filters

We have very long schema files for each of our language dependent query shards. One thing that is doubling the configuration length of our main text processing field definition is that we have to repeat the exact same filter chain for query time version EXCEPT with a queryMode=true parameter. Is

Re: Index vs. Query Time Aware Filters

I should have explained that the queryMode parameter is for our own custom filter. So the result is that we have 8 filters in our field definition. All the filter parameters (30 or so) of the query time and index time are identical EXCEPT for our one custom filter which needs to know if it's in q

I have an index with field collapsing defined like this: SomeField true

Custom Hit Collector

As far as I can tell, using field collapsing prevents the use of the queryResultCache from being checked. It's important for our application to have both. There are threads on incorporating custom hit collectors which seems like it could be a way to implement the simplified collapsing I need (just

Re: Understanding SOLR search results

Can you include the entire text for only the titolo field? 1.0 = tf(termFreq(titolo:trent)=1) means the index contains one hit for 'trent' for that field, that doc. Mike -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/Understanding-SOLR-search-results-tp4003480p4003540.h

Re: The way to customize ranking?

You can use CustomScoreQuery to combine a scalar field value (e.g. like the amount of the paid placement) together with the textual relevancy. You can combine things anyway you want, e.g. finalScore = textualScore + 1000.0 * scalarValue. Or whatever makes sense. It sounds like you want some ki

FilterCache Memory consumption high

I've looked through documentation and postings and expect that a single filter cache entry should be approx MaxDoc/8 bytes. Our frequently updated index (replication every 3 minutes) has maxdoc ~= 23 Million. So I'm figuring 3MB per entry. With CacheSize=512 I expect something like 1.5GB of RAM,

Memory Cost of group.cache.percent parameter

Does anyone have a clear understanding of how group.caching achieves it's performance improvements memory wise? Percent means percent of maxDoc so it's a function of that, but is it a function of that *per* item in the cache (like filterCache) or altogether? The speed improvement looks pretty dra
