             Summary: Option to pass solr.hdfs.home in API backup/restore calls
                 Key: SOLR-14507
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-14507
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: Improvement
      Security Level: Public (Default Security Level. Issues are Public)
          Components: Backup/Restore
            Reporter: Haley Reeve


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.

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.
