Hi All, I have a question on Solr Backup and Restore features of Collection.
Right now, we have a use case where we are taking backup of prod collection on a daily basis and creating the same collection on lower env. And we are on Solr cloud 7.7 We are following the below process to backup collections using a scheduler. 1) Daily delete backed up prod collection in lower env. 2) Create prod collection in lower env using backup and restore feature of cloud. -https://lucene.apache.org/solr/guide/7_2/collections-api.html#backup Below are somethings that I have noticed 1) I see the daily backup scheduler is creating replicas on different nodes. Sometimes multiple replicas are created on one node and sometimes all replicas are created on different nodes. 2) I don't see that the restored collections configs are on zk. Can anyone suggest to me, is this the right way of taking backups for my use case ? or Shall I create all collections once and use a standalone mode of backups and restore api on each replica to update the documents, instead of deleting the collection on a daily basis and what could be the downsides of it. Please suggest Thanks, Sudhir.
