Bill: We're working on CDCR, Cross Data Center Replication, see: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-6273
Not entirely sure this pertains, but it might be something that's useful in this situation. Essentially you'd have two separate clusters, one East and one West. This is "active passive" in the sense that all indexing should be done to one DC with the "remote" dc getting updates from the "one source of truth DC". Some lag of course. This functionality is in production in a 4.x version. We're currently having some trouble with making it pass all tests on trunk, not quite sure what the heck is going on. My _guess_ is that there's something about the test framework that's wonky, or perhaps the tests are exposing an edge case. I'm sure we'll figure it out, any help appreciated (hint, hint).....
