Chris, Did you try the Collections API to do whatever you're trying to do? 1. Create collection and 2. Delete collection. https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/solr/Collections+API#CollectionsAPI-api6
The collection APIs cleanup things if stuff goes wrong. As I don't know, I'm not sure about it but did you already try it and things didn't work/clean up for you? If that's the case, was there an error that you noticed? On Thu, Sep 4, 2014 at 4:45 AM, Christopher Gross <cogr...@gmail.com> wrote: > Shawn, > How do I remove a collection from the SolrCloud?
