Were you indexing new documents while reloading? “Previously we’ve done reloads of a collection after changing solrconfig.xml without any issues.”

This time we saw it across 3 of 3 environments where we got several Solr’s showing “IndexWriter is closed” errors and had to stop and restart those Solr instances. In our final environment we skipped the RELOAD and just did solr stop, solr start. The solrconfig.xml change we made was turning on the replication handler (not sure if this has any bearing on the issue) <requestHandler name="/replication" class="solr.ReplicationHandler"> <lst name="defaults"> <str name="maxWriteMBPerSec">96</str> <str name="httpConnTimeout">60000</str> <str name="httpReadTimeout">60000</str> </lst> </requestHandler> Is there anything “unsafe” about reload on a collection that is handling live traffic in that version?
