Hey,

I have a scenario where we run a Solr cluster in Azure, with Solr running in a 
VM and the data on a managed disk. One scenario that we want to handle and are 
considering different solutions for, is that one of the nodes\VMs will be down 
due to a network issue or a crash, but the disk will still be up.

Is it possible for us, to create a new VM, and use  
MOVEREPLICA/ADDREPLICA/RESTORE on the existing data to create the replacement 
replicas ?
I guess I'm looking for a valid, safe way to update the collection state in ZK 
to point to the new node, does something like this exist ?

I assume the risk is that some of the indexes were corrupted, but the vast 
majority shouldn't have been, and it would save me copying TBs of data.
Probably we will also need something that shuts down the failed node after it 
disconnects in case it comes back up online.


Regards,
Yuri
