I have a large SolrCloud collection that I'm trying to add replicas for existing shards. I've tried both the Collections API via ADDREPLICA: curl " http://collection1-2d.i.corp:8983/solr/admin/collections?action=ADDREPLICA&collection=insights1&shard=1402358400&node=collection1-2d.i.corp:8983_solr "
I've also tried adding a replica via the Core Admin API, though I can't find documentation on the CoreAdmin call I'm using: curl " http://collection1-2d.i.corp:8983/solr/admin/cores?action=CREATE&name=collection1_1402358400_replica1&collection=collection1&shard=1402358400 " Logs are in the gist below, as well as clusterstate for the shard in question, which describe what I see via the UI also -- the newly created replica shard erroneously thinks it has fully replicated. https://gist.github.com/ralph-tice/18796de6393f48fb0192 The logs are after issuing a REQUESTRECOVERY call. The only message on the leader after that call is: [qtp1728790703-173] org.apache.solr.handler.admin.CoreAdminHandler Leader collection1_1402358400_replica1 ignoring request to be in the recovering state because it is live and active. Thanks for any help or insight! Let me know if any further information is required. --Ralph
