You can use a combination of the Tomcat Manager app: 
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-6.0-doc/manager-howto.html and this patch: 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-336 to create instances on the fly.

My three types of instances have separate home directories, but each running 
instance uses a different data directory.

Thanks,
Stu

I have a related question on this topic. I have a web application
which I would like to create indexes for individual users on the fly,
is it possible to do JNDI configuration without restarting Tomcat?
Here is some more detail on what I am trying to do:
Our search application has a web based administration page in which
administrators can select set of documents and make them available for
search on different URLs or with different user privileges. I know we
could use the same index and filter results based on a indexname
field, but having separate indexes would make it easy for us to
migrate an index to a different machine easier.

Thank you for your help.
