I would think that using a servlet filter to rewrite the URL should be
pretty strait forward. You could write your own or use a tool like http://tuckey.org/urlrewrite/
and just configure that.
Using something like this, I think the upgrade procedure could be:
- install rewrite filter to rewrite multi-core URL to non-multi-core
URL for all solr instances.
- upgrade app to use multi-core URL
- upgrade solr instances to multi-core when convenient and remove
rewrite filter

We are moving from single core to multicore. We have a few servers

application to talk to the solr servers uniformly (ie without a core
name
during conversion). Would it be possible to re-add the default core
as a
configuration setting in solr.xml to allow for a smoother
conversion? Am I
missing a setting that would help with this process?
