Hi,
        we are looking at Solr+Zookeeper as the architecture for enabling 
federated searches among geographically distributed data centers.

I wonder if anybody can comment on what is the status of enabling timeouts with 
respect to distributed searches in a Solr-Zookeeper environment. Specifially, 
following the example C) in the Solr Cloud wiki:

http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrCloud

it seems like the system is resilient to any Solr server (out of 4) being 
unavailable, but if both Solr servers serving the same shard go down, then a 
distributed query results in error, instead or returning partial results. Is 
there any special configuration that needs to be set for the Solr and/or 
Zookeepers servers, or any request parameter that needs to be added, to make 
the distributed query just return results from the only available shard ? Or 
maybe this feature is not yet operational ?

thanks a lot,
Luca
