I know this isn't a solr specific question but I was wondering what
folks do in regards to managing the machines in their solr cluster?
Are there any recommendations for how to start/stop/manage these
machines? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
What do you mean by manage?
For stopping and starting, I built my own redhat-friendly init script to
handle jetty. It uses a file in /etc/sysconfig for commandline options.
You can see my init script here:

Here's what I have in /etc/sysconfig/solr:
STARTARGS="-Xms3072M -Xmx3072M -XX:NewSize=2048M -XX:+UseParNewGC
-XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC -XX:+CMSParallelRemarkEnabled
-Dsolr.solr.home=/index/solr -Dsolr.clustering.enabled=true
-DSTOP.PORT=8079 -DSTOP.KEY=somePassword"
STOPARGS="-DSTOP.PORT=8079 -DSTOP.KEY=somePassword"
I'm running CentOS5, but I ran into a problem with the fuser command
that I use in the init script. I filed a bug with CentOS, but since the
bug comes from upstream, they were not able to fix it. You may need to
install a new psmisc package to use the init script:

The script works fine on CentOS 6.
Thanks,
