Hi,

I'm using Solr-7.4.0 and I want to export 4TB of data from our current Solr
cluster to a different cluster. The new cluster has twice the number of
nodes than the current cluster and I want data to be distributed among all
the nodes. Is this possible with the Backup/Restore feature considering the
fact that I want to increase the number of shards in the new Collections?

>From the official docs:
*"Support for backups when running SolrCloud is provided with
the Collections API
<https://lucene.apache.org/solr/guide/7_4/collections-api.html#collections-api>.
This allows the backups to be generated across multiple shards, and
restored to the same number of shards and replicas as the original
collection."*

I tried to create a backup of one collection using this feature but it is
giving me this error described here
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-12523.

Can someone guide me on this and is there any other way to do this exercise
which would take less time?

Thanks,
Anshuman
