> The ref-guide singles out {{<solr_install>/lib}} as being a particularly good place to put plugin jars during Dockerfile packaging:
> bq. The .jar files placed here are available to all Solr cores running on the node, and to node level plugins referenced in solr.xml — so basically everything. Contrary to <solr_home>/lib/, this directory is always located in the install dir, so it can be used e.g. for custom Dockerfile to place custom plugin jars.
> But this comes with a bit of a hidden catch: the directory is on the classpath of Solr server, but it's *not* on the classpath for "bin/solr" tools more generally.  There may be other cases, but I've seen this cause issues with "bin/solr zk" in particular, where users may want to use their own ZkAclProvider or ZkCredProvider implementations with "bin/solr zk".
> We should add {{<solr_install>/lib}} to the tool classpath, or update the ref-guide with other guidance on where jars can be placed to be loadable by the bin/solr tools.
