If you want to avoid re-indexing, you could consider building a synonym file that is generated using your rule set, and then using that to expand your queries. You'd need to get a list of all terms in your index and then process them to generate synyonyms. Actually, I don't know how to get a list of all the terms without Java programming, though: is there a way?

Thanks Alexei,
Thanks Paul,

I played with the solr.PhoneticFilterFactory. Analysing my query in solr
admin backend showed me how and that it is working. My major problem is,
that this filter needs to be applied to the index chain as well as to the
query chain to generate matches for our search. We have a huge index at this
point and i'am not really happy to reindex all content.

Is there maybe a more subtle solution which is working by just manipulating
the query chain only?

Otherwise i need to backup the whole index and try to reindex overnight when
cms users are sleeping.

I will have a look into the ColognePhonetic encoder. Im just afraid ill have
to reindex the whole content there as well.
