Varun Thacker created SOLR-9239: ----------------------------------- Summary: Deprecate backup/restore via replication handler in favour of an equvalent core admin api Key: SOLR-9239 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-9239 Project: Solr Issue Type: Improvement Reporter: Varun Thacker Priority: Minor
In SOLR-5750 we added core backup/restore hooks via the core admin API . This was done at the time to leverage the backup/restore code from the cloud classes . A discussion on why we have two ways for core backup/restore came up in SOLR-7374 . Currently we document core backup/restore only via the replication handler. I think we should move in favour of it being a core admin operations. Here are some of the reasons why I think thats a good idea : - SolrCloud backup/restore is implemented as a collection api. The logical equivalent of it for standalone should be core admin and not replication handler . - More importantly core admin supports async calls. So using the backup/restore api will be a lot cleaner. We don't need a separate backup/ restore status API . -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@lucene.apache.org
