  • Configure Solr 4 search service The way that you configure SkyVault to use Solr 4 depends on how you have installed SkyVault. If you install SkyVault using the setup wizard, Solr 4 is installed and enabled automatically. Solr 4 is installed in the same Tomcat container as SkyVault, and the connection URL is unchanged from the default. The Solr 4 home is within the SkyVault home directory.
  • Solr 4 security By default, communication between SkyVault repository and Solr 4 is protected by SSL with mutual authentication.
