  Caused by: java.net.SocketException: Connection reset by peer
  
  When the di-buildindex.sh script runs, it sends status update
  queries from commerce to solr server repeatedly. The utility
  times out when sending the status update but building the index
  process continues to run despite the exception.
  

Local fix

• The following URL in an alternative way to build the index
  directly on the solr server:
  
  http://<solrserver>:<port_number>/solr/MC_10001_CatalogEntry_en_
  US/dataimport?command=full-import
  

Problem summary

• USERS AFFECTED:
  Users who are building the solr index prior to FEP5
  
  PROBLEM ABSTRACT:
  The buildindex utility times out with a SocketException error
  
  BUSINESS IMPACT:
  Users do not know whether the index was build since the utility
  times out
  
  RECOMMENDATION:
  

Problem conclusion

• Adding timeout values (SolrConnTimeout, soTimeout) which allow
  the utility to complete without timing out. (depending on the
  value)
  
  Those timeout values already present in FEP5. Refer to the
  following documentation on usage of these timeout parameters:
