Hmm, first, why don't you feed the live solr index with content from the live database ?

There is no additional documentation apart from the built in help

php extension/ezfind/bin/php/updatesearchindexsolr.php -help

The DB initialisationis done after the siteaccess, so in principle using the additional parameters should override it (not tested myself though)

About the "driver": you should use the same as the ini settings (the aliases), so mysql, ezmysql for example are synonyms and usable as long as the corresponding ini settings are set (look at the default site.ini shipped)

Found one reason - code completely wrong in execute():

{
if ( !empty( $this->Options[$param] ) )
{
- $optionString .= ' --' . $param . '=' . escapeshellarg( $this->Options['db-host'] );
+ $paramString .= ' --' . $param . '=' . escapeshellarg( $this->Options[$param] );
}
}

However, adding in the options causes the process to hang.
