Haley Reeve updated SOLR-14507:
-------------------------------
Description:
The Solr backup/restore API has an optional parameter for specifying the
directory to backup to. However, the HdfsBackupRepository class doesn't use
this location when creating the HDFS Filesystem object. Instead it uses the
solr.hdfs.home setting configured in solr.xml. This functionally means that the
backup location, which can be passed to the API call dynamically, is limited by
the static home directory defined in solr.xml. This requirement means that if
the solr.hdfs.home path and backup location don't share the same URI scheme and
hostname, the backup will fail, even if the backup could otherwise have been
written to the specified location successfully.
This request is to allow the option of using the location setting to initialize
the filesystem object.

If we had the option to pass the solr.hdfs.home path as part of the API call,
it would remove this limitation on the backup location.
