-------------------------------------
Hi Hrishikesh,
bq. Is there a reason why we have introduced a core Admin API for
Backup/restore instead of reusing the replication handler?
When we issue a backup command and it's with an async param then the core admin
handler already has the necessary hooks to deal with the async requests. Hence
in my patch I added core admin api's for backup/restore .

> We should have an easy way to do backups and restores in SolrCloud. The
> ReplicationHandler supports a backup command which can create snapshots of
> the index but that is too little.
> The command should be able to backup:
> # Snapshots of all indexes or indexes from the leader or the shards
> # Config set
> # Cluster state
> # Cluster properties
> # Aliases
> # Overseer work queue?
> A restore should be able to completely restore the cloud i.e. no manual steps
> required other than bringing nodes back up or setting up a new cloud cluster.
> SOLR-5340 will be a part of this issue.
