Hi, It seems abort-fetch nicely removes the index directory which i'm replicating to which is fine. Restarting, however, does not trigger the the same feature as the abort-fetch command does. At least, that's what my tests seems to tell me.
Shouldn't a restart of Solr nicely clean up the mess before exiting? And, shouldn't starting Solr also look for mess left behind by a possible sudden shutdown of the server at which the mess obviously cannot get cleaned? If i now stop, clean and start my slave it will attempt to download an existing index. If i abort-fetch it will clean up the mess and (due to low interval polling) make another attempt. If i, however, restart (instead of abort-fetch) the old temporary directory will stay and needs to be deleted manually.
