Hello Oakley.
I am not familiar with the backup process either.

The analyzingInfixSuggesterIndexDir not being in the backup may not be an
issue.

I would suggest you restore the backup on Solr and see whether it's created
automatically for you.

If not, there are many options like buildOnStartup/buildOnCommit or issue
the suggest.build=true command as a post-restore operation.

Arcadius.
