I'm trying to automate setting up new slave instances. I've noticed when I use the core admin to bring a new slave core online that the slave won't replicate the master index. The issue appears to be that when the slave core is created, it's given a new (empty) index with a newer timestamp than the master index timestamp. When the master finally reindexes, only then does the slave replicate.
Short of triggering a reindex on the master, how can I get the newly created slave core to do replication? To create the slave core, I execute the following shell script: curl "http://localhost:8080/solr/admin/cores?action=CREATE&name=slave0&instanceDir=solrhome/slave0&config=solrhome/slave0/conf/solrconfig.xml&schema=solrhome/slave0/conf/schema.xml&dataDir=solrhome/slave0/data"; curl "http://localhost:8080/solr/slave0/replication?command=fetchindex&masterUrl=http://localhost:8080/solr/master/replication"; curl "http://localhost:8080/solr/slave0/replication?command=enablepoll"; Ryan
