Hey Ganesh, This was not for clustering.I do not think you would need clustering with solr cloud.With solr cloud when you create a collection from scratch it creates the data directories under solr home.Now if your drives are mounted as (/d/1,/d/2 etc) you would want to use all the storage available for indexes apart from any system resources.So we just created the collection and then shut down solr and used symlinks to point to all the mounts.
