I am currently running a cloud SOLR6 service in Kubernetes 3 Zookeeper servers and 6 nodes

I recently deployed a new cloud SOLR6 service for dev purposes, but it requires the same schema structures as the current running environment, the data isn't important as I will repopulate that manually

How can i replicate only the structure/schema of the collections running in the current setup

This is how ended up doing this, I am sure there is a more efficient way to do it , but this worked.

1. 
   

   Log into the source solr pod

   
   
   

   kubectl -it exec sourcePodName -c containerName bash

   
   
   

   eg: kubectl -it exec solr-staging-0 -c solr bash

   
   


2. 
   

   Create a dump of the configSet

   
   
   

   /opt/solr/bin/solr zk -n configSetName -d /tmp/ configSetName / -z sourceZookeeperAddress : zookeeperPort

   
   
   

   eg: /opt/solr/bin/solr zk -n connectors -d /tmp/connectors/ -z solr-dev.solr-staging-cluster:2181

   
   


3. 
   

   Retrieve the dump from the kubernetes pod by copying it to your local

   
   
   

   kubectl cp sourcePodName :/tmp/ configSetName /* /tmp/ configSetName

   
   
   

   eg: kubectl cp solr-staging-0:/tmp/connectors/* /tmp/connectors

   
   


4. 
   

   Create a zip file of the conf content

   
   
   

   zip -r /tmp/ configSetName /con/conf/* /tmp/ configSetName .zip

   
   
   

   eg: zip -r /tmp/connectors/con/conf/* /tmp/connectors.zip

   
   


5. 
   

   Port forward to your destination kubernetes server

   
   
   

   gcloud container clusters get-credentials clusterName --zone zone --project projectName && kubectl port-forward podName 8983:8983

   
   
   

   eg: gcloud container clusters get-credentials workflows --zone europe-west1-d --project bidvest-alice && kubectl port-forward solr-dev-0 8983:8983

   
   


6. 
   

   Import your dataset on your destination solr cluster

   
   
   

   NOTE: This is actually the SOLR 7.7 import statement, but the SOLR6.6 command didn't work

   
   
   

   curl -X POST --header "Content-Type:application/octet-stream" --data-binary @/tmp/ configSetName .zip "http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/configs?action=UPLOAD&name= configSetName "

   
   
   

   eg: cmd: curl -X POST --header "Content-Type:application/octet-stream" --data-binary @/tmp/connectors.zip "http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/configs?action=UPLOAD&name=connectors"
