Sounds pretty weird. I would use 4.5.1. Don’t know that it will address this, but it’s a very good idea.
This doesn’t sound like a feature to me. I’d file a JIRA issue if it seems like a real problem. Are you using the old style solr.xml with cores defined in it or the new core discovery mode (cores are not defined in solr.xml)? - Mark On Dec 18, 2013, at 6:30 PM, Ryan Wilson <rpwils...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hello all, > > I am currently in the process of building out a solr cloud with solr 4.5 on > 4 nodes with some pretty hefty hardware.
