My replica folders reside in an nfs mount, I am using RHEL 6/CentOS6.8. Has
anyone ever faced this issue?

Lucene-based software (including Solr) does NOT work well on NFS.  NFS does not provide all the locking functionality that Lucene tries to use by default.

You're probably going to need to change the lock factory, and might even need to completely disable locking.  If you do disable locking, you have to be VERY careful to never allow more than one core or more than one Solr instance to try and open a core directory.  Doing so will likely corrupt the index.

I strongly recommend NOT using NFS storage for Solr.  In addition to locking problems, it also tends to be extremely slow.Use a local filesystem.
