2) with multi-core stuff getting in, is Bill Au going to be adding support for multiple indices anyway?
As is, you can use all existing scripts for each index. You just need to run snapwhatever for each index.
Perhaps if distribution could be handled for a directory that is not necessarily the index (maybe a folder with stuff + index*) then you could have:
<multicore adminPath="/admin/multicore"> <core name="core0" instanceDir="core0" dataDir="/path/to/data/core0" /> <core name="core1" instanceDir="core1" dataDir="/path/to/data/core1" /> </multicore> Then if /path/to/data was distributed, it could have: /path/to/data/core0/index/... /path/to/data/core0/boost.xml (see SOLR-418) /path/to/data/core1/index/... ... ryan
