I am trying to find my away around the Collections API for backup and
restore.
I thought I would be able to use the LISTBACKUP action to get the list
of backups ... but it doesn't look like that will be possible. To use
the LISTBACKUP action, I have to know the backup name and pass it to the
API call. This is problematic because I won't have the backup name when
the program starts ... I need my program to get a list of backup names
in the repo so that it can figure out which backups it should delete.
Please assume that the machine running the backup/restore program will
NOT have access to the shared storage mounted on all the Solr servers.
I want this to ONLY require HTTP access to Solr.
Right now the backup/restore program is written as a python script. The
customer wants it rewritten in Java, which I am working on.
The Solr servers are running version 9.1.1.
Thanks,
Shawn
