Config Sets
On a multicore Solr instance, you may find that you want to share configuration between a number of different
cores. You can achieve this using named configsets, which are essentially shared configuration directories
stored under a configurable configset base directory.
To create a configset, simply add a new directory under the configset base directory. The configset will be
identified by the name of this directory. Then into this copy the config directory you want to share. The structure
should look something like this:
/
/configset1
/conf
/managed-schema
/solrconfig.xml
/configset2
/conf
/managed-schema
/solrconfig.xml
The default base directory is $SOLR_HOME/configsets, and it can be configured in solr.xml.
To create a new core using a configset, pass configSet as one of the core properties. For example, if you do
this via the core admin API:
http:///admin/cores?action=CREATE&name=mycore&instanceDir=path/to/instanc
e&configSet=configset2
Configuration APIs
Solr includes several APIs that can be used to modify settings in solrconfig.xml.
Blob Store API
Config API
Request Parameters API
Managed Resources
Blob Store API
The Blob Store REST API provides REST methods to store, retrieve or list files in a Lucene index. This can be
used to upload a jar file which contains standard solr components such as RequestHandlers,
SearchComponents, or other custom code you have written for Solr.
