Hi, I am migrating from Solr 6.5.1 to Solr 8.6.3. As a part of the entire upgrade I have the first task to install and configure the solr with the core and collection. The solr is installed in SolrCloud mode.
In Solr 6.5.1 I was using the following key values in core.properties file. The configuration files were uploaded to zookeeper using the upconfig command. The core and collection was automatically created with the setting in core.properties files and the configSet uploaded in zookeeper and it used to display on the Solr 6.5.1 dashboard. numShards=12 name=mycore collection=mycore configSet=mycore With the latest Solr 8.6.3 the same approach is not working. As per my understanding the core is identified using the location of core.properties which is under *<SOLR_HOME>/mycore/core.properties.* Can you please help me with the following? - Is there any property I am missing to load the core and collection as it used to be in Solr 6.5.1 with the help of core.properties and config set on zookeeper? - The name of the core and collection should be configurable and not the dynamically generated names. How can I control that in the latest Solr? - Is the core and collection API the only way to create core and collection as I see that the core is also not getting listed even if the core.properties file is present? Please note that I will be doing a full indexing once the setup is done. Kindly help me with your suggestions. Best, Modassar
