Shawn Heisey commented on SOLR-12889:
-------------------------------------

The last part of the proposal, removing initFailures and just including failed 
cores in the regular core list, probably needs to be a master-only change.

> Clean up CoreAdmin behavior and responses when acting on cores that failed to 
> initialize

> Solr isn't behaving quite correctly when performing CoreAdmin actions on 
> cores that exist, but failed to initialize.
>  * RELOAD works. That was made possible by SOLR-10021.
>  * UNLOAD works, and can even delete directories if asked to.
>  * RENAME works, but Solr must be restarted for the admin UI to reflect the 
> new name in the "SolrCore Initialization Failures" message.
>  * SWAP doesn't actually work, but returns a response that *LOOKS* like it 
> worked.
> I didn't try the other actions, because it doesn't really make any sense to 
> allow those on a core that failed.
> What I see as things that need to be checked or implemented when acting on 
> failed cores:
>  * SWAP
>  ** Fail fast.
>  ** OR make it work properly. If we choose this, adjust the core name in the 
> initFailures part of the STATUS response.
>  * RENAME
>  ** Fail fast.
>  ** OR make it work properly. If we choose this, adjust the core name in the 
> initFailures part of the STATUS response.
>  * UNLOAD
>  ** This looks like it behaves correctly.  Tried it with 
> deleteInstanceDir=true and it did wipe out the whole core.
>  * Other actions not already mentioned
>  ** Fail fast
> Something else to consider:  Get rid of the initFailures part of the STATUS 
> response.  List all cores, even those that failed.  Include a boolean item in 
> the response to indicate whether initialization succeeded, and only list some 
> of the full information for a failed core.  This would make implementing 
> SOLR-12863 easier.
