 ### Elasticsearch
 Metron comes with built-in templates for the default sensors for Elasticsearch. When adding a new sensor, it will be necessary to add a new template defining the output fields appropriately. In addition, there is a requirement for a field `alert` of type `nested` for Elasticsearch 2.x installs.  This is detailed at [Using Metron with Elasticsearch 2.x](../metron-elasticsearch/README.md#using-metron-with-elasticsearch-2x)
 
+### Solr
+
+Metron comes with built-in schemas for the default sensors for Solr.  When adding a new sensor, it will be necessary to add a new schema defining the output fields appropriately.  In addition, these fields are used internally by Metron and also required:
+
+* `<field name="guid" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true" required="true" multiValued="false" />`
+* `<field name="source.type" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true" />`
+* `<field name="timestamp" type="timestamp" indexed="true" stored="true" />`
+* `<field name="comments" type="string" indexed="true" stored="true" multiValued="true"/>`
+* `<field name="metaalerts" type="string" multiValued="true" indexed="true" stored="true"/>`
+
+The unique key should be set to `guid` by including `<uniqueKey>guid</uniqueKey>` in the schema.
+
+It is strongly suggested the `fieldTypes` match those in the built-in schemas.

 ### Indexing Configuration Examples
 For a given  sensor, the following scenarios would be indicated by
 the following cases:

 Elasticsearch and Kibana will have been stopped and you should now have an instance of Solr Cloud up and running at http://localhost:8983/solr/#/~cloud.  This manner of starting Solr
 will also spin up an embedded Zookeeper instance at port 9983. More information can be found [here](https://lucene.apache.org/solr/guide/6_6/getting-started-with-solrcloud.html)
 
+Solr can also be installed using [HDP Search 3](https://docs.hortonworks.com/HDPDocuments/HDP2/HDP-2.6.4/bk_solr-search-installation/content/ch_hdp_search_30.html).  HDP Search 3 sets the Zookeeper root to 
+`/solr` so this will need to be added to each url in the comma-separated list in Ambari UI -> Services -> Metron -> Configs -> Index Settings -> Solr Zookeeper Urls.  For example, in full dev
+this would be `node1:2181/solr`.
+
+## Enabling Solr
+
+Elasticsearch is the real-time store used by default in Metron.  Solr can be enabled following these steps:
+
+1. Stop the Metron Indexing component in Ambari.
+1. Update Ambari UI -> Services -> Metron -> Configs -> Index Settings -> Solr Zookeeper Urls to match the Solr installation described in the previous section.
+1. Change Ambari UI -> Services -> Metron -> Configs -> Indexing -> Index Writer - Random Access -> Random Access Search Engine to `Solr`.
+1. Set the `source.type.field` property to `source.type` in the [Global Configuration](../metron-common#global-configuration).
+1. Set the `threat.triage.score.field` property to `threat.triage.score` in the [Global Configuration](../metron-common#global-configuration).
+1. Start the Metron Indexing component in Ambari.
+1. Restart Metron REST and the Alerts UI in Ambari.
+
+This will automatically create collections for the schemas shipped with Metron:
+
+* bro 
+* snort
+* yaf
+* error (used internally by Metron)
+* metaalert (used internall by Metron)
+
+Any other collections must be created manually before starting the Indexing component.  Alerts should be present in the Alerts UI after enabling Solr.
+
 ## Schemas
 
 As of now, we have mapped out the Schemas in `src/main/config/schema`.
