Varun Thacker commented on SOLR-5750:
-------------------------------------

bq. We can't default to some path relative to the shard's dataDir?

When we do a restore, the current impl. restores into a fresh collection. So 
the backed up data can be on another node not accessible to the restoring 
collection shard.

> We should have an easy way to do backups and restores in SolrCloud. The 
> ReplicationHandler supports a backup command which can create snapshots of 
> the index but that is too little.
> The command should be able to backup:
> # Snapshots of all indexes or indexes from the leader or the shards
> # Config set
> # Cluster state
> # Cluster properties
> # Aliases
> # Overseer work queue?
> A restore should be able to completely restore the cloud i.e. no manual steps 
> required other than bringing nodes back up or setting up a new cloud cluster.
> SOLR-5340 will be a part of this issue.
