Kevin Risden reopened SOLR-11473:
---------------------------------

Found a related place where we need to account for non hdfs:/ paths. UpdateHandler has a specific check for hdfs:/

> Not sure if it's a bug or a missing feature :) I'm trying to make Solr work on Alluxio, as described by [~thelabdude] in https://www.slideshare.net/thelabdude/running-solr-in-the-cloud-at-memory-speed-with-alluxio/1
> The problem I'm facing here is with autoAddReplicas. If I have replicationFactor=1 and the node with that replica dies, the node taking over incorrectly assigns the data directory. For example:
> before
> {code}"dataDir":"alluxio://localhost:19998/solr/test/",{code}
> after
> {code}"dataDir":"alluxio://localhost:19998/solr/test/core_node1/alluxio://localhost:19998/solr/test/",{code}
> The same happens for ulogDir. Apparently, this has to do with this bit from HDFSDirectoryFactory:
> {code}  public boolean isAbsolute(String path) {
>     return path.startsWith("hdfs:/");
>   }{code}
> If I add "alluxio:/" in there, the paths are correct and the index is recovered.
> I see a few options here:
> * add "alluxio:/" to the list there
> * add a regular expression in the lines of \[a-z]*:/ I hope that's not too expensive, I'm not sure how often this method is called
> * don't do anything and expect alluxio to work with an "hdfs:/" path? I actually tried that and didn't manage to make it work
> * have a different DirectoryFactory or something else?
> What do you think?
