I am configuring solr to store indexes on HDFS. There are two problems i am facing - 1. I am providing a name node to store indexes on HDFS in the configset using(as mentioned in the link) <strname="solr.hdfs.home">hdfs://<namenode1:port>/user/solr</str> But when my primary namenode goes down and switch over takes place.The solr starts giving error as it doesnt switch over by itself to the new active name node. 2.
