I have a Solr Cloud deployed on top of HDFS. I accidentally deleted a collection using the collection API. So, ZooKeeper cluster has lost all the info related to that collection. I don't have a backup that I can restore from. However, I have indices and transaction logs on HDFS.
If I create a new collection and copy the existing data directory to the data directory path of the new collection I have created, will I be able to go back to the state where I was? Is there anything else I would have to do? Thanks, Chetas.
