I've run into a problem recently that's difficult to debug and search for: I have three nodes in a cluster and this weekend one of the nodes went partially down. It no longer responds to distributed updates and it is marked as GONE in the Cloud view of the admin screen. That's not ideal, but there's still two boxes up so not the end of the world.
The problem is that it is still responding to ping requests and returning queries successfully. In my setup, I have the three servers on an haproxy load balancer so that I can distribute requests and have clients stick to a specific solr box. Because the bad node is still returning OK to the ping requests and still returns results for simple queries, the load balancer does not remove it from the group. Is there a ping like request handler that would tell me whether the given box I'm hitting is still "in the cloud"? Thanks!
