Marc Morissette commented on SOLR-11508:
----------------------------------------
[~dsmiley] I was thinking the same thing.
What should the environment variable be called?
* SOLR_CORE_HOME fits well with SOLR_HOME and SOLR_DATA_HOME
* SOLR_CORE_ROOT_DIRECTORY is most similar to coreRootDirectory.
I think I like SOLR_CORE_HOME a little bit better.
What should the behaviour be if coreRootDirectory is already defined in
solr.xml? Should the environment variable override solr.xml or vice-versa? I
guess environment variables/command line parameters usually override
configuration files?
> core.properties should be stored $solr.data.home/$core.name

> Since Solr 7, it is possible to store Solr cores in separate disk locations
> using solr.data.home (see SOLR-6671). This is very useful where running Solr
> in Docker where data must be stored in a directory which is independent from
> the rest of the container.
> Unfortunately, while core data is stored in
> {{$\{solr.data.home}/$\{core.name}/index/...}}, core.properties is stored in
> {{$\{solr.solr.home}/$\{core.name}/core.properties}}.
> Reading SOLR-6671 comments, I think this was the expected behaviour but I
> don't think it is the correct one.
> In addition to being inelegant and counterintuitive, this has the drawback of
> stripping a core of its metadata and breaking core discovery when a Solr
> installation is redeployed, whether in Docker or not.
> core.properties is mostly metadata and although it contains some
> configuration, this configuration is specific to the core it accompanies. I
> believe it should be stored in solr.data.home, with the rest of the data it
> describes.
