Hi I have a multi-core installation, with 2 cores. Sometimes, when Solr starts up, one of the cores fails (due to an extension to Solr I have, which is waiting on an external service which has yet to initialise).
In previous versions of Solr, I could subsequently issue a RELOAD to this core, even though it was in a "fail" state, and it would reload and start up. Now it seems with Solr 4, I cannot issue a RELOAD to a core which has failed. Is this the case? How can I get Solr to start a core which failed on initial start up? Thanks, Peter
