Thanks for the reply, this really helped me.

For Solr 4.9, what is the actual zkcli command to upload config?

java -classpath example/solr-webapp/WEB-INF/lib/*
org.apache.solr.cloud.ZkCLI -cmd upconfig -zkhost 127.0.0.1:9983 -confdir
example/solr/collection1/conf -confname conf1 -solrhome example/solr

OR

./server/scripts/cloud-scripts/zkcli.sh -zkhost 127.0.0.1:9983 -cmd upconfig
-confname my_new_config -confdir server/solr/configsets/basic_configs/conf

I dont know why HDP/HDInsight does not provide something like solrctl
commands to make life easier for all!
