If the server is running in cloud mode (with zookeeper) then SolrJ can create a collection without any file copying on the server. If the server is NOT running in cloud mode, then there are only very specific and fairly expert situations when copying files in advance is not required -- most of the time, you'll need to ensure the config exists before you create the core. CoreAdmin CREATE docs -- includes a large red warning box that discusses this. https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/solr/CoreAdmin+API#CoreAdminAPI-CREATE Collections API for SolrCloud: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/solr/Collections+API#CollectionsAPI-api1 Thanks, Shawn
