Yes, you need to list that EFF file in the "confFiles" list - only those
listed files will be replicated.
<str
name="confFiles">solrconfig.xml,data-config.xml,schema.xml,stopwords.txt,synonyms.txt,elevate.xml,
/var/solr-data/List/external_*</str>
Oops... sorry, no wildcards... you must list the individual files.
Technically, the path is supposed to be relative to the Solr collection
"conf" directory, so you MAY have you may have to put lots of "../" in the
path to get to the files, like:
../../../../solr-data/List/external_1
Tor each file.
(This is what Erick was referring to.)
Sorry, I don't have the answer to the reload question at the tip of my
tongue.

Jack,
Here is the ReplicationHandler definition from solrconfig.xml:
<requestHandler name="/replication" class="solr.ReplicationHandler" >
<lst name="master">
<str name="enable">${enable.master:false}</str>
<str name="replicateAfter">startup</str>
<str name="replicateAfter">commit</str>
<str name="replicateAfter">optimize</str>
<str
name="confFiles">solrconfig.xml,data-config.xml,schema.xml,stopwords.txt,synonyms.txt,elevate.xml</str>
</lst>
<lst name="slave">
<str name="enable">${enable.slave:false}</str>
<str name="masterUrl">http://${master.ip}:${master.port}/solr/${
solr.core.name}/replication</str>
<str name="pollInterval">00:01:00</str>
</lst>
</requestHandler>
The confFiles are under the dir:
/var/solr/application-cores/List/conf
and the external file fields are like:
/var/solr-data/List/external_*
Should I add
/var/solr-data/List/external_*
to confFiles like this?
<str
name="confFiles">solrconfig.xml,data-config.xml,schema.xml,stopwords.txt,synonyms.txt,elevate.xml,
/var/solr-data/List/external_*</str>
Also, can you tell me when (or whether) I need to do reloadCache on the
slave after the ext file fields are replicated?
Thx.

Show us your <confFiles> directive. Maybe there is some subtle error in

Erick,
Thx for your reply. The external file field fields are already under
<dataDir> specified in solrconfig.xml. They are not getting replicated.
(Solr version 4.2.1.)

Haven't tried this, but I _think_ you can use the
"confFiles" trick with relative paths, see:
http://wiki.apache.org/solr/**SolrReplication<http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrReplication>
Or just put your EFF files in the data dir?
Best
