Hi,

We are running SolrCloud with version 5.5.4. As I understand, Solr
Collection Backup and Restore API are only supported from version 6
onwards. So wondering what is the best mechanism to get our collections
backed-up on older Solr version.

When I ran backup command on a particular node (curl
http://localhost:8983/solr/gettingstarted/replication?command=backup) it
seems it only creates a snapshot for the collection data stored on that
particular node. Does that mean, if I run this command for every node
hosting my SolrCloud collection, I will be getting the required backup?
Will this backup the metadata as well from ZK? I presume not. If so, what
are the best possible approaches to get the same. Is there something made
available by Solr for the same?

Thanks
