Hi list, I seem to be unable to get REINDEXCOLLECTION to work on a collection alias (running Solr 8.2.0). The documentation seems to state that that should be possible: https://lucene.apache.org/solr/guide/8_2/collection-management.html#reindexcollection "name Source collection name, may be an alias. This parameter is required."
If I run on my alias (qa_supplier_products): curl " http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/collections?action=REINDEXCOLLECTION&name=qa_supplier_products&numShards=1&cmd=start I get an error: "org.apache.solr.common.SolrException: Unable to copy documents from qa_supplier_products to .rx_qa_supplier_products_6: {\"result-set\":{\"docs\":[\n {\"DaemonOp\":\"Deamon:.rx_qa_supplier_products_6 started on .rx_qa_supplier_products_0_shard1_replica_n1\" If I instead point to the underlying collection, everything works fine. Now I have an alias pointing to an alias, which works, but ideally I would like to just have my main alias point to the newly reindexed collection. Can anybody help me out here? Thanks, /Bjarke
