We use Solr quite a bit at edelight -- and love it. However, we encountered one
minor peeve: although each individual
Solr server has its own dashboard, there's no easy way of getting a complete
overview of an entire Solr cluster and the
status of its nodes.
Over the last weeks our own Aengus Walton developed Soldash, a dashboard for
your entire Solr cluster.
Although still in its infancy, Soldash gives you an overview of:
- your Solr servers
- what version of Solr they're running
- what index version they have, and whether slaves are in sync with their
master
as well as allowing you to:
- turn polling and replication on or off
- force an index fetch on a slave
- display a file list of the current index
- backup the index
- reload the index
It is worth noting that due to the set-up of our own environment, Soldash has
been programmed to automatically presume all Solr instances have the same
cores. This may change in future releases, depending on community reaction.
The project is open-source and hopefully some of you shall find this tool
useful in day-to-day administration of Solr.
The newest version (0.2.2) can be downloaded at:

Instructions on how to configure Soldash can be found at the project's homepage

Feedback and suggestions are very welcome!
