Ok Peter for script-based replication; I forgot to mention I already
verified that mechanism.
When I configure the slave as follows
<requestHandler name="/replication" class="solr.ReplicationHandler" >
<lst name="slave">
<str name="masterUrl">http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/replication</str>
<str name="pollInterval">00:00:20</str>
...
</lst>
</requestHandler>
SOLR uses the org.apache.solr.handler.ReplicationHandler to access every 20s
the masterUrl via http.
My question is: is it possible to use another ReplicationHandler that polls
the master by pointing directly to its SOLR home?
I mean, is technically feasible?
Please correct me if I am not clear.
Thanks.
