It depends on which level you want to delete it from. If you just want
solr to know nothing about the field, then you can remove it from the
schema and reload the core (or restart solr).
Technically the field will still exist in the lucene index, but if
you're only accessing that index through solr, it will effectively not
exist any more. (I think).

Hi All,
Just completed an interview on SOLR - one of the question was "is it
possible to remove a field from existing index". I am not sure what
is the
business use case here.
My understanding is it is not possible. Still wanted to know from SOLR
experts, is it possible to remove a field from an existing index?
Thanks in Advance,
Kishore Veleti A.V.K.
