Our prod environment is going to be on Azure. As such, I want our index to live on the Azure VM's local storage rather than the default VM disk (blob storage).
Normally, I just use /var/opt/tomcat7/PORT/solr/collection1/data, but I want to use something else. I am also using the Collections API to create my collections (I have several). Is my only option to hardcode the data directory in the collection's solrconfig.xml? I would prefer to avoid this because not all environments will have this same disk structure. Ideally, I could put a parameter in the Collections API for the instance directory. I see this is available for Core Admin, but I don't see it for the Collections API itself. Or failing that, solr.xml would be better. Does anyone have any suggestions?
