Hi, I just started experimenting with solr cloud.
I have a solr cloud of 20 nodes. I have one collection with 18 shards running on 18 different nodes with replication factor=1. When one of my shards goes down, I create a replica using the Solr UI. On HDFS I see a core getting added. But the data (index table and tlog) information does not get copied over to that directory. For example, on HDFS I have /solr/collection/core_node_1/data/index /solr/collection/core_node_1/data/tlog when I create a replica of a shard, it creates /solr/collection/core_node_19/data/index /solr/collection/core_node_19/data/tlog (core_node_19 as I already have 18 shards for the collection). The issue is both my folders core_node_19/data/index and core_node_19/data/tlog are empty. Data does not get copied over from core_node_1/data/index and core_node_1/data/tlog. I need to remove core_node_1 and just keep core_node_19 (the replica). Why the data is not getting copied over? Do I need to manually move all the data from one folder to the other? Thank you, Chetas.
