https://lucene.apache.org/solr/guide/6_6/defining-core-properties.html#defining-core-properties There is a gotcha in what you want to do in that on an unload, the core.properties file is deleted in current versions of Solr - so you'll have to find a way (outside Solr) to copy it or re-create it. What is the use case here ? best -Simon On Tue, Sep 12, 2017 at 1:27 PM, Shashank Pedamallu <spedama...@vmware.com> wrote: > Hi, > > I wanted to know how does Solr pick up cores on startup.
