Thanks, Shawn. I think what you propose there will be very helpful. There are definitely usecases where we want to work at the solr node level and not core level. Fieldcache is one other example.
In my case, I am trying to write a simple health check request handler that makes sure that all cores on a particular node are loaded and are queriable. The ping request handler works on a core level. The /solr/admin/cores api works for me but it returns with the ok status even if some other cores are still loading after solr restart. Ps. I am using legacy setup (non-cloud) On Mon, Nov 14, 2022, 2:04 AM Shawn Heisey <apa...@elyograg.org> wrote: > On 11/13/22 23:55, Shawn Heisey wrote: > > If you want to create your own global handler, then you can add a > > definition to ImplicitPlugins.json, which is embedded in the solr-core > > jar.
