Re: HDP Search - Configuration & Data Directories
The documentation for HDP Search is online (and included in the package actually). This page has the descriptions for the Ambari parameters: https://doc.lucidworks.com/lucidworks-hdpsearch/3.0.0/Guide-Install-Ambari.html . HDP Search is a package developed by Lucidworks but distributed by Hortonworks, so Shawn is right, you should go through them for further questions.

Thanks Shawn. Will check with Hortonworks!

The text strings "solr_config_conf_dir" and "solr_config_data_dir" do not appear anywhere in the Lucene/Solr source code, even if I use a case-insensitive grep. Which must mean that it is specific to the third-party software you are using. You'll need to ask your question to the people who make that third-party software. The log4j config is not in zookeeper. That will be found on each server. That file configures the logging framework at the JVM level, it is not specifically for Solr. Thanks, Shawn

HDP Search - Configuration & Data Directories
Hi, A quick question on configuring Solr with Hortonworks HDP. I have installed HDP and then installed HDP Search using the steps described under the link - https://docs.hortonworks.com/HDPDocuments/HDP2/HDP-2.6.4/bk_solr-search-installation/content/hdp-search30-install-mpack.html I have used the link from lucidworks to configure various parameters exposed on Ambari - https://doc.lucidworks.com/lucidworks-hdpsearch/3.0.0/Guide-Install-Ambari.html#_startup-option-reference - Within the various Solr config settings on Ambari, I am a bit confused on the role of "solr_config_conf_dir" parameter. At the moment, it only contains log4j.properties file. As HDPSearch is mainly meant to be used with SolrCloud, wondering what is the significance of this directory as the configurations are always maintained on ZooKeeper. - Another question is when the indexes for SolrCloud collections are stored on HDFS, what is the significance of "solr_config_data_dir"? Is the solr_config_data_dir directory used ONLY for collections for which directory factory settings are set to local? If so, is it safe to assume that this is not needed when HDFS is being used? Thanks
