Solr actually has protections in place to specifically PREVENT index replication when the master has an empty index. This is so that a accidental mistake made on the master that clears its index cannot completely delete the index on the slave. After you index some data into the new master index, if change meets the "replicateAfter" settings, then the next poll made by the slave should replicate the new index. Thanks, Shawn
