Description

The current two core['core'].replace calls in https://github.com/apache/lucene-solr/blob/releases/lucene-solr/7.5.0/solr/webapp/web/js/angular/controllers/cloud.js#L410-L416 assume replica_?[ntp]?\d+ format and strangely handle/hide cores which have (say) a replica-foo_bar format.

This ticket proposes to accommodate replica* format.

Such replicas can be created via the Collections API e.g.

admin/collections?action=ADDREPLICA&collection=gettingstarted&shard=shard2&name=gettingstarted_shard2_replica-foo_bar"

via the name parameter. That parameter is undocumented at present (oversight or intentional?) but it works and so it would be nice for the Nodes view to accommodate the replica* format.

Attribution: my colleague dancollins first noticed locally that the 'Disk usage' column content was there for some nodes but not for others; i then got curious as to the reason and the investigation led to this JIRA ticket here.
