There is no guide to reindexing, because there are so many ways to index. The basic procedure is to repeat whatever you did the first time, possibly deleting the entire index first. Because Lucene and Solr indexes often require changes to deal with changing requirements, the full index procedure should be automated and repeatable. The dataimport handler has a SolrEntityProcessor that can index from another Solr instance. All fields must be stored for this to work, because it just retrieves documents and ignores the search index. Many people (including myself) do not store all fields, in an attempt to keep the index size down. Thanks, Shawn
