Default ping is not useful
--------------------------

                 Key: SOLR-1206
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-1206
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: search
    Affects Versions: 1.3
         Environment: Debian linux / jetty
            Reporter: Brian Whitman
            Priority: Minor


We recently had a solr server go down as the underlying disk (where the data 
was) stopped responding. The server was still running and the admin GUI worked, 
as did the ping query. But any actual query (like select?q=*:*) would hang 
indefinitely.

I know that you can modify the ping query to be more robust, but I would like 
to suggest that the default shipping ping tries to access data, as I imagine 
that's what your average user is testing when they "ping solr"
