Thanks Eric and Shawn.Here is why I am trying to do so.I may be missing something here since this is relatively new to me.Appreciate your help and time.* I will elaborate on what I am trying to acheive here.*
I am trying to install solr cloud and my machines typically have 5 drives which are mounted to 5 different locations(/d/1 ,/d/2,/d/3..).Each of these drives are 3 Tb in size which should give a total of 15 Tb for solr index storage.How ever when I specify the solr dir in solrconfig.xml ,I can point only to one specific directory(say I specify /d/1 I am using only 3 Tb of storage). What would be the preferd approach in this case? 1.Create symlink 2.Since I will r=2 I can specify the datadir and point to different drive in the machine 3.use lvm? Thanks, Nishanth
