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.
