Hi Darren, You just need to do the following things in general to go multicore:
1. Use the folder *<SOLR_INSTALL_DIR>\example\multicore\core1* and * <SOLR_INSTALL_DIR>\example\multicore\core2* as they were your actual * <SOLR_INSTALL_DIR>\example\solr*. 2. Check if <SOLR_INSTALL_DIR>\multicore\solr.xml exists and it has the element <cores adminPath="/admin/cores"> uncomented; 3. Change solr.war's application Context with <Environment name="solr/home" type="java.lang.String" value="* <SOLR_INSTALL_DIR>\\example\\multicore*" override="true"/> 4. http://localhost:8080/solr/ should show two links: *Solr Admin core0* and *Solr Admin Core1*. Of course more cutomizations are avilable. This is just the simplest thing to do. Let me know if it works. ---- Marcelo Carvalho Fernandes +55 21 8272-7970 On Sat, May 26, 2012 at 5:45 PM, Darren Govoni <dar...@ontrenet.com> wrote: > It's not really clear from the wiki how to use cores as shard replicas > within the same solr server.
