The "host" is what SolrCloud will publish in zookeeper as the hostname for this server, which is used by the distributed search functionality inherent in SolrCloud. If you are not using SolrCloud, this does nothing. Some poeple assume that this controls which network interface will be used, but that is not what it's for. The /solr part of the URL is set by Jetty. It is called the context path. Note that if you change this path (which you CAN do), the admin UI in 6.0 will stop working. So far, this is not considered to be a bug -- the person who wrote our new UI specifically designed it around a static /solr path. Since 5.0, the only supported way to run Solr is the included scripts that start the included Jetty, where we maintain control of the configuration. See the SOLR-9054 issue in Jira for more detailed information. Thanks, Shawn
