Hoss Man commented on SOLR-1273: -------------------------------- bq. I guess ,we should let people to have both the the options i suppose .. but it seems confusing. a single page listing all of the replicatio relevant info seems more straight forward. bq. Why not show the link disabled? Atleast that suggests the user that the feature is disabled .There can be a link alongside the disabled link which can point to the wiki page. well, partly because it makes the index.jsp more complicated, but also because it doesn't seem any more straightforward from a user perspective. we can put links to a wiki page directly on the replication/distribution JSPs just as easily as we can put them next to links on the main admin screen -- but if you only put them on the main admin screen you've still got to worry about people with bookmarks directly to the page. > rectify confusing "Replication" and "Distribution" links on solr admin screen > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-1273 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-1273 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 1.4 > Reporter: Hoss Man > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 1.4 > > > Sine 1.0, the Solr Admin screen has had a "Distribution" link which points to > "distributiondump.jsp" and displays stats according to data files created by > the snappuller/snapinstaller scripts > With the new java based replication, when a ReplicationHandler is enabled, we > now have a "Replication" link on the admin page pointing to > "replication/index.jsp" which displays stats/status for java based > replication. > In at least one instance, these two different links confused a user... > http://www.nabble.com/Replication-In-1.4-to24356158.html#a24356158 > We need to rectify this confusion prior to releasing 1.4. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
