Re: How to set up multiple indexes?

Check
http://doc.ez.no/Extensions/eZ-Find/2.2/Advanced-Configuration/Using-multi-core-features

It's for eZ-Find, but it's the basic setup for multiple cores in any
environment.

We have cores designed like so:

solr/sfx/
solr/forum/
solr/mail/
solr/news/
solr/tracker/

each of those core directories has its own conf/ with schema.xml and
solrconfig.xml. then solr/solr.xml looks like:

  



etc.

After that you add the core name into the url for all requests to the core:

http:///solr/sfx/select?...
http:///solr/sfx/update...
http:///solr/tracker/select?...
http:///solr/tracker/update...

Re: How to set up multiple indexes?

Hi Andy!

I configured this a few days ago, and found a good resource --
http://wiki.apache.org/solr/MultipleIndexes

That page has links that will give you the instructions for setting up
Tomcat, Jetty and Resin.  I used the Tomcat ones the other day, and it gave
me everything that I needed to get it up and running.  You basically just
need to create a new directory to contain the second instance, then create a
context file for it in the TOMCAT_HOME/conf/Catalina/localhost directory.

Good luck!
