The PDF attached is mostly screenshots - if the hope is that the Ref Guide will
show screenshots, it would be helpful if those were attached directly to the
issue. I don't know that the page makes sense with that many step-by-step
screenshots - we don't even have that many covering the Admin UI, and
DBVisualizer is not an application developed by this community - but a few key
ones would probably be helpful.

I agree that it is probably too many screenshots for a general purpose
reference guide. The rough outline of steps in the description is really what
is required for connecting any JDBC SQL client. I wanted the first guide to be
extra clear to start with and then can trim down the unnecessary steps. I'm
thinking about writing a blog post about this and that would probably be a
better place for a step-by-step guide.
As a side note: the screenshots will have to be updated with a non snapshot
build of Solr. It would make sense to take the final screenshots maybe once an
RC is cut or at least update the screenshots at that time.

> Currently this requires the following:
> * a JDBC SQL client program (like DBVisualizer or SQuirrelSQL)
> * all jars from solr/dist/solrj-lib/* to be on the SQL client classpath
> * solr/dist/solr-solrj-6.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar on the SQL client classpath
> * a valid JDBC connection string (like
> jdbc:solr://SOLR_ZK_CONNECTION_STRING?collection=COLLECTION_NAME)
> * without SOLR-8213, the username/password supplied by the SQL client will be
> ignored.
