Both Solr instances will be writing to separate indexes, but can they share the same solr.home? So, here is what I want,
1) solr.home = solr/multicore 2) There is a single solr.xml under multicore directory 3) Each instance would use the same solr.xml, which will have entries for multiple cores 4) Each instance will write to different core at a time - so one index will be written by only one writer at a time. not sure if this is a supported configuration.
