SolrCloud Indexing question

[Kalyan Kuram <ka...@live.com>]

Hi AllI need suggestion on how to send indexing commands to 2 different solr server,Basically i want to mirror my index,here is the scenarioi have 2 cluster,
each cluster has one master and 2 slaves with external zookeeper in the fronti need suggestion on what solr api class i should use to send indexing commands to 2 masters,will LBHttpSolrServer do the indexing or is this only used for querying
If there is a better approach please suggest

If you're using zookeeper, then your index is SolrCloud, and you don't 
have masters and slaves.  The traditional master/slave replication model 
does not apply to SolrCloud.

With SolrCloud, there is no need to have two independent clusters.  If a 
server dies, the other servers in the cloud will keep the cluster 
operational.  When you bring the dead server back with the proper 
config, it will automatically be synchronized with the cluster.

For a Java program with SolrJ, use a CloudSolrServer object for each 
cluster.  The constructor for CloudSolrServer accepts the same zkHost 
parameter that you give to each Solr server when starting in SolrCloud 
mode.  You cannot index to independent clusters at the same time through 
one object - if they truly are independent SolrCloud installs, you have 
to manage updates to both of them independently.

Thanks,
Shawn
