Bjarke:

One thing, what version of Solr are you moving _from_ and _to_?
Solr/Lucene only guarantee one major backward revision so you can copy
an index created with Solr 6 to another Solr 6 or Solr 7, but you
couldn't copy an index created with Solr 5 to Solr 7...

Also note that shard splitting is a very expensive operation, so be patient....

Best,
Erick
