making changes to solr schema

Preface: This is my first attempt at using solr.

What happens if I need to do a change to a solr schema that's already
in production?  Can fields be added or removed?

Can a type change from an integer to a float?

Thanks in advance,
Jon

you may need a core reload or a serverrestart
fields can be added and the subsequent document additions take advantage of it.
fields can be removed if you are no longer going to use them in queries

In general type changes may need re-indexing of data
