https://github.com/whitepages/solrcloud_manager supports 5.x, and I added some backup/restore functionality similar to SOLR-5750 in the last release. Like SOLR-5750, this backup strategy requires a shared filesystem, but note that unlike SOLR-5750, I haven’t yet added any backup functionality for the contents of ZK. I’m currently working on some parts of that.
Making a copy of a collection is supported too, with some caveats.
