You’re relying on legacyMode, which is no longer supported. In older versions of Solr, if a core.properties file was found on disk Solr attempted to create the replica (and collection) on the fly. This is no longer true.
Why are you doing it this manually instead of using the collections API? You can precisely place each replica with that API in a way that’ll be continued to be supported going forward. This really sounds like an XY problem, what is the use-case you’re trying to solve?
