Hello, I have been running Solr (5.5.0) on HDFS.
Recently a collection just went missing with all the instanceDirs and Datadirs getting deleted. The following logs in the solrCloud overseer. 2017-01-20 20:42:39,515 INFO org.apache.solr.core.SolrCore: [3044_01_17_shard4_replica1] CLOSING SolrCore org.apache.solr.core.SolrCore@2e2e0a23 2017-01-20 20:42:39,665 INFO org.apache.solr.core.SolrCore: [3044_01_17_shard4_replica1] Closing main searcher on request. 2017-01-20 20:42:39,690 INFO org.apache.solr.core.CachingDirectoryFactory: looking to close hdfs://Ingest/solr53/3044_01_17/core_node3/data [CachedDir<<refCount=0;path=hdfs://Ingest/solr53/3044_01_17/core_node3/data;done=false>>] 2017-01-20 20:42:39,690 INFO org.apache.solr.core.CachingDirectoryFactory: looking to close hdfs://Ingest/solr53/3044_01_17/core_node3/data/index [CachedDir<<refCount=0;path=hdfs://Ingest/solr53/3044_01_17/core_node3/data/index;done=false>>, CachedDir<<refCount=0;path=hdfs://Ingest/solr53/3044_01_17/core_node3/data;done=false>>] 2017-01-20 20:42:39,690 INFO org.apache.solr.core.CachingDirectoryFactory: Closing directory: hdfs://Ingest/solr53/3044_01_17/core_node3/data/index 2017-01-20 20:42:39,712 INFO org.apache.solr.store.hdfs.HdfsDirectory: Closing hdfs directory hdfs://Ingest/solr53/3044_01_17/core_node3/data/index 2017-01-20 20:42:39,713 INFO org.apache.solr.core.CachingDirectoryFactory: Closing directory: hdfs://Ingest/solr53/3044_01_17/core_node3/data 2017-01-20 20:42:39,713 INFO org.apache.solr.store.hdfs.HdfsDirectory: Closing hdfs directory hdfs://Ingest/solr53/3044_01_17/core_node3/data 2017-01-20 20:42:39,713 INFO org.apache.solr.core.CachingDirectoryFactory: looking to close hdfs://Ingest/solr53/3044_01_17/core_node3/data [] 2017-01-20 20:42:39,713 INFO org.apache.solr.core.CachingDirectoryFactory: Removing directory after core close: hdfs://Ingest/solr53/3044_01_17/core_node3/data "core":"3044_01_17_shard13_replica1", "collection":"3044_01_17", 2017-01-20 20:42:39,780 INFO org.apache.solr.cloud.overseer.ZkStateWriter: going to update_collection /collections/3044_01_17/state.json version: 2164 2017-01-20 20:42:39,782 INFO org.apache.solr.common.cloud.ZkStateReader: A cluster state change: [WatchedEvent state:SyncConnected type:NodeDataChanged path:/collections/3044_01_17/state.json] for collection [3044_01_17] has occurred - updating...
