Currently we run into Solr issues on production, like an index just randomly stops working. As a large enterprise, our team cannot simply run a drush command on production to fix the problem. In fact, we cannot even troubleshoot the problem as when you copy down your LIVE environment to a multidev, the SOLR server (data) does not come with it. So we are blindly running drush commands against production and hoping that fixes an issue.
If the solr data (like database/files) could be cloned down to a multidev, we could at least troubleshoot the issue and have confidence in our deployment/action against LIVE.
