On your slave, you can run snappuller to get the latest snapshot from master(generated by snapshooter), then run snapinstaller to notify solr to use the updated index.

There is a hardware based balancer, and each node in the cluster has a separate install of Solr. The application code and files are on a NFS mount, along with the "solr/ home". The first node has been acting as the master. My question is about reindexing, and even schema updates in some circumstances. For a reindex, I post to Solr on the master node and then restart the remaining nodes. Is there a better way to do this? For a schema update, I stop the master, delete the data/index dir, start solr and then post to Solr on the master node. Then I restart the remaining nodes. Is there a better way to do this? Any tips, feedback or what have are much appreciated! Matt
