Actually, yeah. If you think about it a remote merge is like the inverse
of replication.
Where replication is a one to many away from an index, the inverse would
be merging many back to the one.
Sorta like a recall.
I think it would be a great analog to replication.

Darren,
No, that is not possible without one copying an index/shard to a single machine
on which you would then merge indices as described on the Wiki.
Hmmmm, wouldn't it be nice to make use of existing replication code to make it
possible to move shards around the cluster?

Hi Otis,
Yeah, I saw page, but it says for merging cores, which I presume
must reside locally to the solr instance doing the merging?
What I'm interested in doing is merging across solr instances running on
different machines into a single solr running on
another machine (programmatically). Is it still possible or did I
misread the wiki?
Thanks!

Subject: Merging Remote Solr Indexes?
Hi,
I thought of a useful capability if it doesn't already exist.
Is it possible to do an index merge between two remote Solr's?
To handle massive index-time scalability, wouldn't it be useful
to have distributed indexes accepting local input, then merge
them into one central index after?
