Marc Morissette commented on SOLR-11508:
----------------------------------------
[~elyograg] This is an interesting idea but I'm not sure how this solves the
problem. It would be nice if Solr could start without solr.xml but it would
condemn cloud mode users to choose between sticking to the default settings or
mixing their configuration and data.
It's either that or we would need to externalize every configuration parameter
available in solr.xml (and there are a lot).

> Since Solr 7, it is possible to store Solr cores in separate disk locations
> using solr.data.home (see SOLR-6671). This is very useful when running Solr
> in Docker where data must be stored in a directory which is independent from
> the rest of the container.
> While this works well in standalone mode, it doesn't in Cloud mode as the
> core.properties automatically created by Solr are still stored in
> coreRootDirectory and cores created that way disappear when the Solr Docker
> container is redeployed.
> The solution is to configure coreRootDirectory to an empty directory that can
> be mounted outside the Docker container.
> The incoming patch makes this easier to do by allowing coreRootDirectory to
> be configured via a solr.core.home system property and SOLR_CORE_HOME
> environment variable.
