Subject: HDInsight with Solr 4.9.0 Create Collection

Folks:

I'm in a bind. Added Solr 4.9.0 to HDInsight cluster and find no Solrctl
commands installed. So, I am doing the following to create a collection.

I have my collection schema in a location:



/home/sshuser/abhi/ems-collection/conf



Using this command to create a collection:



http://headnode1:8983/solr/admin/cores?action=CREATE&name=ems-collection&ins
tanceDir=/home/sshuser/abhi/ems-collection/conf
<http://hn0-esohad.iqz04pwsg24ulbodxuo51nheig.jx.internal.cloudapp.net:8983/
solr/admin/cores?action=CREATE&name=ems-collection&instanceDir=/home/sshuser
/abhi/ems-collection/conf/>
/



Get an error like:

Error CREATEing SolrCore 'ems-collection': Unable to create core:
ems-collection Caused by: Could not find configName for collection
ems-collection found:[collection1, hditestconfig]



I guess i need to register my config name with Zk. How do I register the
collection schema with Zookeeper?


Is there way to bypass the registration with zk and build the collection
directly from my schema files at that folder location, like I was able to do
in Solr 4.10 in CDH 5.14:

solrctl --zk hadoop-dn6.eso.local:2181/solr instancedir --create
ems-collection /home/sshuser/abhi/ems-collection/

solrctl --zk hadoop-dn6.eso.local:2181/solr collection --create
ems-collection -s 3 -r 2


Your help is appreciated.



Thanks,

Abhi
