Hi Sébastien, Are you using Zookeeper to maintain your 4 node cluster? If Yes, then clean the Zookeeper using zkCli.sh. It is present in zookeeper/bin Sample query is ./zkCli.sh -server 127.0.0.1:2181 ls/
it lists all files.delete them all like aliases.json,clusterstate.json etc..except zookeeper folder. And restart the cluster. You will see all old things get cleared. Hope it helps!!!

I use Solr version 4.5.1 . One (N4) of these node have completely died (all cpu, ram and disks are lost), I have added an other node (N5) to the Solr Cloud cluster and copied all core configuration previously on node N4 to that node (solr.xml and core.properties in data dir). That N5 node have replicated all the index of my collection and is already able to respond to request for the core (replica) that it owns. In the state of my Solr cloud cluster, i can see old replicas on the died node N4 ! how can i remove theses replica from my collection ? Thanks Sébastien
