DirectSolrSpellChecker does not prepare any kind of dictionary. It just uses the term dictionary from the indexed field. So what you are trying to do is impossible.
You would think it would be possible with IndexBasedSpellChecker because it creates a dictionary as a sidecar lucene index. But it won't work either because it uses the term dictionary of the field the sidecar index was based on to get term frequencies. So both IndexBased- and DirectSolr- rely on the original field's term dictionary to work. You cannot use either to move one core's field data to another as a spellcheck dictionary. Possibly, you can create a Dictionary file based on the data that is in the field you want to use. Then you can use FileBasedSpellChecker. See http://wiki.apache.org/solr/FileBasedSpellChecker .

I configured solr.DirectSolrSpellChecker in coll1 solrconfig.xml and works fine. Now, I want to configure coll2 solrconfig.xml to use SAME spell check dictionary index created above. (I do not want coll2 prepare its own dictionary index but just do spell check against the coll1 Spell dictionary index) Is it possible to do it? Tried out with IndexBasedSpellChecker but could not get it working. Any suggestions?
