Erik Hatcher commented on SOLR-1335:
------------------------------------

Error prone?  I don't buy that.  It's the same as setting a name in a 
.properties file - no more error prone than that. 

Startup scripts - these could delegate to a developer maintained subscript that 
set variables to be included in -D settings.

Global properties - yes, but you can "namespace" them... 
-Dcore1name.master=false -Dcore2name.master=true kinda stuff.

I'm not yet convinced the additional .properties feature is warranted.

> There are  few ways of loading properties in runtime,
> # using env property using in the command line
> # if you use a multicore drop it in the solr.xml
> if not , the only way is to  keep separate solrconfig.xml for each instance.  
> #1 is error prone if the user fails to start with the correct system 
> property. 
> In our case we have four different configurations for the same deployment  . 
> And we have to disable replication of solrconfig.xml. 
> It would be nice if I can distribute four properties file so that our ops can 
> drop  the right one and start Solr. Or it is possible for the operations to 
> edit a properties file  but it is risky to edit solrconfig.xml if he does not 
> understand solr
> I propose a properties file in the instancedir as solrcore.properties . If 
> present would be loaded and added as core specific properties.
