> HdfsFileWriter doesn't allow us to create files in HDFS with a different replication factor than the configured DFS default because it uses:
> {{FsServerDefaults fsDefaults = fileSystem.getServerDefaults(path);}}
> Since we have two forms of replication going on when using HDFSDirectoryFactory, it would be nice to be able to set the HDFS replication factor for the Solr directories to a lower value than the default. I realize this might reduce the chance of data locality but since Solr cores each have their own path in HDFS, we should give operators the option to reduce it.
> My original thinking was to just use Hadoop setrep to customize the replication factor, but that's a one-time shot and doesn't affect new files created. For instance, I did:
> {{hadoop fs -setrep -R 1 solr49/coll1}}
> My default dfs replication is set to 3 ^^ I'm setting it to 1 just as an example
> Then added some more docs to the coll1 and did:
> {{hadoop fs -stat %r solr49/hdfs1/core_node1/data/index/segments_3}}
> 3 <-- should be 1
> So it looks like new files don't inherit the repfact from their parent directory.
> Not sure if we need to go as far as allowing different replication factor per collection but that should be considered if possible.
> I looked at the Hadoop 2.2.0 code to see if there was a way to work through this using the Configuration object but nothing jumped out at me ... and the implementation for getServerDefaults(path) is just:
> public FsServerDefaults getServerDefaults(Path p) throws IOException {
> return getServerDefaults();
> }
> Path is ignored ;-)
