With the SolrCloud work in the SolrCloud branch, there is no master/slave in that sense. If you add a new core, it will replicate from the current leader of the shard you assign the SolrCore, or it will be added automatically to a shard based on where it looks like its needed. A leader is different than a master. The new SolrCore will read about it's config from the shared config files in ZooKeeper based on the collection it is in. In this model, I'm not sure what you are asking makes sense. Your question does make sense in a distributed Solr, but non SolrCloud world. SolrCloud is not intended to work with the old Master/Slave setup though. -- - Mark http://www.lucidimagination.com
