This is so that users can still search/browse the site while a reindex takes place. Solr can have multiple cores and in this case 1 is the active core that searching is based off of. When a reindex kicks off, the reindex always occurs against a different core. Once the reindexing is done, then the cores are swapped and now user requests hit a new active, updated index.
