I am using 4.7.2 version of Solr. Cluster contains 16 VMs for Solr and 3 Zookeeper VMs. I am creating a bunch of collections (total 54) sequentially. I am getting the below error during one of the collection creation. This error is intermittent.
*> Could not fully createcollection: <collection_name>* Here's the stack trace in solr log related to this. *ERROR - 2015-05-17 03:44:23.511; org.apache.solr.common.SolrException; Collection createcollection of createcollection failed:org.apache.solr.common.SolrException: Could not fully createcollection: <collection_name>* * at org.apache.solr.cloud.OverseerCollectionProcessor.createCollection(OverseerCollectionProcessor.java:1637)* * at org.apache.solr.cloud.OverseerCollectionProcessor.processMessage(OverseerCollectionProcessor.java:387)* * at org.apache.solr.cloud.OverseerCollectionProcessor.run(OverseerCollectionProcessor.java:200)* * at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java:662)* When I tried to delete this collection immediately, I am getting below error *> Could not find collection: <collection_name>* But, I am able to see this collection (without any shards) in Solr Admin UI. And when I re-tried collection deletion after some time, I was able to delete this collection. Can some one please help me here? Thanks, Manohar
