Hi We are using Solr Cloud 7.2.1. We are using Solr CSV update handler to do bulk update (several Millions of docs) in to multiple collections. When we make a call to the CSV update handler using curl command line (as below), we are pointing to single server in Solr. During the problem time, when one of the Solr server goes down this approach could fail. Is there any way that we do this to send the write to the leader, like how the solrj does, through the simple curl command(s) line?
In the request below for some reason, if the SOLR1-SERVER is down, the request will fail, even though the new leader say SOLR2-SERVER is up. curl 'http://<<SOLR1-SERVER>>:8983/solr/my_collection/update?commit=true' --data-binary @example/exampledocs/books.csv -H 'Content-type:application/csv' 1. I can create load balancer / ALB infront of solr, but that may not still identify the Leader for efficiency. 2. I can write a solrj client to update, but i am not sure if i will get the efficiency of bulk update? not sure about the simplicity of the curl as well. Any best practices for the same would be good to have. Regards Ganesh
