Excluding hosts from Solr-distributed queries

You can exclude hosts from Solr-distributed queries.

To exclude hosts from Solr-distributed queries, performing these steps on each node that you want to send queries to.

  1. Navigate to the solr/conf directory:
    • Installer-Services and Package installations: /usr/share/dse/resources/solr/conf
    • Installer-No Services and Tarball installations: dse_install_location/resources/solr/conf
  2. Open the exclude.hosts file, and add the list of nodes to be excluded. Separate each name with a newline character.
  3. Update the list of routing endpoints on each node by calling the JMX operation refreshEndpoints() on the com.datastax.bdp:type=ShardRouter mbean.
