I have setup the example Solr Cloud that comes with the built in Zoo Keeper that runs on localhost:9993.
I created my Solr Cloud instance with 2 nodes. Node 1 url is http://localhost:8983/solr/#/~cloud Node 2 url is http://localhost:7574/solr/#/~cloud Currently all Solr queries go through Node 1 http://localhost:8983/solr/files/select?q=*%3A* Is there a way to query solr cloud collections though the Zoo Keeper or common host:port So that if node 1 or node 2 goes down. The Solr query will still work, so I don't have to change the Solr host:port in the query if one solr node goes down? Currently in our Java application, if Solr 1 is going to brought down for maintenance, then the our solr configuration file solr url property has to be changed to from http://localhost:8983 to http://localhost:7574 Thanks Tyrone
