David Smiley created SOLR-16153: ----------------------------------- Summary: Clone Collection Key: SOLR-16153 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-16153 Project: Solr Issue Type: New Feature Security Level: Public (Default Security Level. Issues are Public) Components: SolrCloud Reporter: David Smiley
It should be possible to "clone" a collection, and to do so cheaply. This might be its own command or be an option of collection creation; either way, it'd be great to support the vast majority of the same options of collection creation. A cloned collection should be the same in every way (shard ranges, collection properties, replicas types and counts, etc.) unless configured to be different (e.g. specify a different configSet). Most importantly, a cloned collection should have the same data, and this can be accomplished via UNIX hard links (when supported) to the underlying files. This would make clones cheap! A no-data option should be supported as well, useful when the intended action is to re-index subsequently. -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.1#820001) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: issues-unsubscr...@solr.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: issues-h...@solr.apache.org
