hdfs - documents missing after hard poweroff

Hi,

Sometimes after a full poweroff of the solr cloud nodes, we see missing
documents from the index. Is there anything about our setup or our recovery
procedure that could cause this? Details are below:

We see the following (somewhat random) behaviour:

 - add 10 documents to index. Commit.
 - query for all documents - 10 documents returned.
 - restart all solr nodes and reset the collection (procedure is below).
 - query for all  documents 10 documents returned.
 - restart+reset all again. - sometimes 7, 8, 9, or 10 documents returned.

To summarize, after a full reboot of all the solr nodes, we are finding
that (sometimes) not all documents are in the index. This situation doesn't
remedy itself by waiting. Restarting all will sometimes re-add them,
sometimes not.

Our procedure for recovering from a hard poweroff is:
 - manually delete all *.lock files from the index folders on hdfs.
 - fully delete the znode from zookeeper.
 - re-add an empty znode in zookeeper.
 - start up all solr nodes.
 - re-add the configset.
 - re-issue the collection create command.

After doing the above, we find that we are able to see all of the files in
the index about 60% of the time. Other times, we are missing some
documents.

Some other things about our environment:
 - we're doing this test with 1 collection that has 18 shards distributed
across 3 solr cloud nodes.
 - solr version 7.5.0
 - hdfs is not running on the solr nodes, and is not being restarted.

Any thoughts or tips are greatly appreciated,

Kyle

Also do you have auto add replicas turned on for these collections over
HDFS?

So I'm definitely curious what is going on here.

Are you still able to reproduce this? Can you check if files have been
modified on HDFS? I'd be curious if tlogs or the index is changing
underneath for the different restarts. Since there is no new indexing I
would guess not but something to check.

Can you run check index on the index to make sure its not corrupt when you
don't get the full result set.
