: for exampe if we have 3 cores -core0 ,core1 and core2 for 3 different : languages and to search across all the 3 indexes : use the shard parameter as : shard=localhost:8080/solr/core0,localhost:8080/solr/core1,localhost:8080/solr/core2
Distributed search requires that all of the shards have "compatible" schemas ... some shards can have more or less fields then other shards, but only if those fields don't get used as part of the distributed request. so while you could do something like this, it won't neccessarily work the way you want it if those 3 cores have differnet schemas. -Hoss
