I've setup a ZK instance and also deployed Solr in Tomcat7 on a different instance in Amazon EC2. Afterwards I tried starting tomcat specifying the ZK host IP, like so:
sudo service tomcat7 start -DzkHost=<< zk ip >>:2181 -DnumShards=3
Solr loads fine, but is not in the cloud.
Any idea what am i doing wrong here?
