Hi Andrew, I didn't correctly understand what you are trying to do with 'copying'? Just use one core as a template or use it to replicate data?
You can reload only one application via: http://localhost/manager/html/reload?path=/yourapp (if you do this often you need to increase the PermGen space) You can replicate a core: http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrReplication Regards, Peter. > Hi > > We have a few cores set up for separate sites and one of these is in use > constantly.
