   Hello,

   How do you drop a single Solr index within a solr node? Sorry, for the basic question. I am just not having any luck finding the answer.

   Thanks

   You probably didn't find the answer because dropping secondary indexes isn't currently supported. We add it as a feature request.

   You can try to use DROP INDEX to remove the Solr secondary index.

   If you're equating "Solr index" to "Solr core", which you initially created using the DSE REST API (POSTed solrconfig.xml, schema.xml etc.), then drop the column family created in the process. When you invoked the API you specified keyspace.columnfamily. If that index is the only CF in the keyspace, then you can drop the keyspace as well and it's like you never created the Solr index. This will also remove the Lucene index files on the node (in solr.data).

   Cheers,

   Jeff
