How to keep a slave offline until the index is puller from master

[Jacob Singh <ja...@gmail.com>]

Hi,

I'm running multiple instances (solr 1.2) on a single jetty server using JNDI.

When I launch a slave, it has to retrieve all of the indexes from the
master server using the snapuller / snapinstaller.

This works fine, however, I don't want to wait to activate the slave
(turn on jetty) while waiting for every slave to get its data.

Is there anyway to make sure that a slave is "up2date" before letting
it accept queries?  AS it is, the last slave will take 10-15 to get
its data, and for those 15 minutes, it is active in the load balancer
and therefor taking requests which return 0 results.

Also, if I switch to multi-core (1.3) is this problem avoided?

Thanks,
Jacob
