"A simple cronjob with <solr directory>/bin/solr status and <solr directory>/bin/solr start should do the trick."
I don't know what that would look like. Wouldn't the job have to check the status and only give the start command if solr isn't running? I don't think it's possible to put logic in a cron job. I think it would have to be in a script, with a cron job to run the script. I've never had cause to write such a script, though, so I don't know how it's done.
