You shouldn't have to do the linkconfig to see the configs in the ZK tree, and it should appear virtually instantaneously. A couple of possibilities:
1> your browser is caching the view somehow (unlikely). 2> your Solr instance isn't pointing to the same ZK your upconfig command is pointing to. This is easy to do if you start your Solr with the bin scripts like 'bin/solr -c' start as that invokes the embedded zookeeper, not the external ensemble, you have to use the -z option for that (the -c option is unnecessary if you specify -z) And the first form of your CREATE command is what's required, i.e. "collection.configName=scbe_public7" not "collection.configName=/configs/scbe_public7" Don't worry about the linkconfig, create or anything else until you can see your configs in the tree view.
