In Solr 3.x, whenever I'd reindex content, I'd fill up one instance, copy the whole "data" directory over to the second (or third) instance and then restart that Tomcat to get the indexes lined up.
With Solr 4.1, I'm guessing that I can't go and do that without taking down all of my nodes and making the replacement. I've yet to see any documentation on "best practices" to switch indexes in a SolrCloud environment -- can anyone out there share what they've done to get it to work? I've tried to stand up the "new" index using the Admin UI, but I just get errors when trying to create the new index with the new directory (which does have a copy of the conf & data dirs.) Thanks. -- Chris
