Hi, Is there is a way to redirect an existing alias to a new collection. I know how to create an alias and assign it to a collection, but I need a way to redirect in periodically to a different collection. Any ideas appreciated. Thanks! -- Sent from: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/Solr-User

Hi Shawn, thanks for this response. We are probably going to take your suggested approach: 1. Upload a new configset to ZooKeeper. 2. Create a new collection using the new configset. 3. Index data into the new collection. 4. Set up an alias with the original collection name, pointing at the ne

Hi, We have recently been performing a bulk reindexing against a large database of ours. At the end of reindexing all documents we successfully perform a CloudSolrClient.commit(). The entire reindexing process takes around 9 hours. This is solr 7.3, by the way.. Anyway, immediately after the comm

Re: Solr Nodes Killed During a ReIndexing Process on New VMs Out of Memory Error

Thanks for the reply. I read the link you provided. I am currently not specifying a heap size with solr so my understanding is that by default it will just grow automatically. If I add more physical memory to the VM without doing anything with heap size, won't that possibly fix the problem? Thanks
