Hi Tom,

I share your confusion – I personally do not bother with configsets when I set 
up my own solr instances. I think it is an either / or situation – you can use 
them if you want, or just create the core you need directly if you have 
installed solr natively and have the standard tools:

% solr create -c archivesspace -d /path/to/archivesspace/solr

Solr needs to be running, and after that command succeeds you should be able to 
verify through the admin app that the core exists and the schema has 
archivesspace field definitions.

Let me know if any of this doesn’t make sense.

Brian

Subject: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Solr review
I'm reviewing the Solr documentation from ArchivesSpace and what I have learned 
from other Solr configurations locally. I'm wondering if I'm missing something.

The ArchivesSpace documentation here:

https://archivesspace.github.io/tech-docs/provisioning/solr.html

suggests the need to copy the various Solr config files over to a configsets 
directory. In my case, with solr installed in /opt/solr that directory would be:

/opt/solr/server/solr/configsets/archivessspace/conf

and then copy the configuration files over to that location. But then I don't 
see anything that specifically tells Solr that that is where to find those 
files.

I believe that it is simply the fact that the files exists down under the 
configured $SOLR_HOME directory that allows Solr to find these, but I'm trying 
to make sure. I have other Solr instances in which I've just got a "conf" 
directory under SOLR_HOME which is not under a configsets directory which seems 
sufficient to get Solr set up, but I'm trying to be sure. I"m still trying to 
figure out a problem with either AS or Solr in my 3.2.0 instance, so I'm 
checking everything along the way. The core looks right (similar number of 
records after indexing), but maybe there is a mismatch somewhere.

Thanks for any thoughts on this,
Tom
