Hello, We observed this problem too with older Solr versions. Whenever none of the shard's replica's would come up we would just shut them all down again and restart just one replica and wait. In some cases it won't come up (still true for Solr 7.4), but start a second shard a while later and wait again. Usually one would become leader and then all is fine, if not, shut all down and start another replica first and repeat.
