There were a couple of cases where the "no live servers" was being returned when the error was something completely different. Does the Solr log show something more useful? And are you sure you have a configset named collection_A?
'cause this works (admittedly on 5.x) fine for me, and I'm quite sure there are bunches of automated tests that would be failing so I suspect it's just a misleading error being returned.
