There is a link in the existing console, but, unfortunately, it links you to documentation. If you read the documentation it explains that the Enterprise Admin console is here: http://localhost:8080/alfresco/service/enterprise/admin

Sorry that it is so confusing.

Thanks Jeff!
I had seen that link, but when the url was pointing me back to the alfresco webapp, I thought that there was some other share-based admin tool. I'm not seeing the solr-specific admin pages that let us define facets in Solr. Is facet definition / display something that can be done out of the box, or does it require customizations?

Thanks again!

There is nothing built-in to Alfresco to leverage or expose facets. You may be able to work with solr to create facets but the product currently has a very old version of Solr (expected to be upgraded in the next major release) and you would then have to customize the UI yourself to show those.

Not impossible, it has been done by others as custom work, but just realize that it's all on you at the present time.
