Mark, first off thanks for the response. Im glad someone is around today ;)
So this is what I have so far: <solr persistent="true" sharedLib="lib"> <cores adminPath="/admin/cores" shareSchema="true"> <core name="items-live" instanceDir="items" default="true" dataDir="data/live"/> <core name="items-offline" instanceDir="items" default="true" dataDir="data/offline"/> </cores> </solr> So my directory structure is: home/items/data/live/index home/items/data/offline/index So after playing around I see that swap literally just swaps the dataDir in solr.xml. I have peristent = true so it saves which core is pointing to which dataDir. So where I think I am a little confused is the naming convention I used above. In this type of setup there is no such thing as a live or offline dataDir as at any point they can be one or the other... the core name is what really matters. So Im guessing this naming convention makes a little more sense <solr persistent="true" sharedLib="lib"> <cores adminPath="/admin/cores" shareSchema="true"> <core name="items-live" instanceDir="items" default="true" dataDir="data/core0"/> <core name="items-offline" instanceDir="items" default="true" dataDir="data/core1"/> </cores> </solr> Sine the actually dataDir name really doesnt mean anything. Is this the correct reasoning? -- View this message in context: http://n3.nabble.com/Multicore-process-tp681929p682088.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
