Hi all -

I'm working with an application that uses Solr v4.2.1 and I'm seeing a
strange issue with our index: I have many fields (10s of thousands) of
fields that don't seem to have any associated document. I was wondering if
there was any way of getting them out of our index (or out of our
admin/luke endpoint, maybe more specifically).

A very helpful person on IRC suggested that the only way to get rid of
these might be a clean rebuild of the index, and that's not out of the
question for us; I hoped to get a bit more information here.

The fields appear in /solr/admin/luke:
<lst name="fedora_datastream_latest_hesler_200_0006_MIMETYPE_ms">
  <str name="type">string</str>
  <str name="schema">I-S-M---OF-----l</str>
  <str name="dynamicBase">*_ms</str>
</lst>

but querying for them, using something like
`fq=fedora_datastream_latest_hesler_200_0006_MIMETYPE_ms:[* TO *]` doesn't
return any documents, and when using the admin UI's Schema Browser there
isn't any corresponding 'Index' section (only 'Schema').

We don't have these fields statically assigned in our schema.

Other than a clean reindexing of our data, is there anything we can do to
clean these up?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Best,
Bridger
