Where does the container lookup the "existing cores"?
If the solr.xml is the old format, then cores are defined in solr.xml, in the <cores> section of that config file. There is a new format for solr.xml that is supported in version 4.4 and later and will be mandatory in 5.0. If that format is present, then Solr will use core discovery -- starting from either the solr home or a defined coreRootDirectory, solr will search for core.properties files and treat each directory where one is found as a core's instanceDir. http://wiki.apache.org/solr/Solr.xml%204.4%20and%20beyond Thanks, Shawn
