Apache Solr Search Patterns

Asynchronous calls

Since some API calls, such as shard splitting, can take a long time and result in timeouts, we have the option of running a call asynchronously by specifying the async=<request_id> parameter in the URL. <request_id> is any ID that can be used to track the status of a particular API call. The request_id class and the status of the task are stored in ZooKeeper and can be retrieved using the REQUESTSTATUS action on the collections API.

http://solr1:8080/solr/admin/collections?action=DELETE&name=catcollection http://solr1:8080/solr/admin/collections?action=CREATE&name=catcollection&numShards=2&replicationFactor=2&maxShardsPerNode=2&collection.configName=conf1&router.field=cat ...
