Hi, One of our largest collection which holds 3.2 billion docs was deleted accidentally in QA environment. Unfortunately we don't have latest solr backup for this collection either to restore. The only option left for us is to restore deleted replica directories under data directory using netbackup restore process.
We haven't done this way of restore before so following things are not clear: 1. As the collection was deleted (not created yet), if the necessary replica directories and files are restore to same location, will the collection works without creating it again? 2. If above option doesn't work, obviously we have to create collection but the replica names and placement may not be same as deleted collection's replica names and placements (creating collections using rule based replicas) so in this case what need to be done to restore the collection smoothly. Or is there any predefined steps available to handle this kind of scenario? Any suggestions is greatly appreciated.
