Here's another question on this rather old thread -- while poring through various options in solrconfig, I came across the the 'native' lockType option.

That seems to indicate that SOLR/Lucene should work fine with multiple writers, as long as a proper locking mechanism is in place, such as would be provided by a POSIX compliant cluster file system, such as GPFS, GFS, Ibrix, OCFS2...

Single shared index, multiple readers/writers, as long as the underlying filesystem implements fs locks properly.

Is this correct?

No. You wll avoid index corruption, but deletions/updates may not be handled properly.
