             Summary: Split Ref Guide Collections API page into several 
sub-pages
                 Key: SOLR-13235
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-13235
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: Improvement
      Security Level: Public (Default Security Level. Issues are Public)
          Components: documentation
            Reporter: Cassandra Targett
            Assignee: Cassandra Targett
             Fix For: 8.0, master (9.0)


The Collections API page has become the de-facto place where information about 
how to work with Solr collections is stored, but it is so huge with API 
examples that information gets lost.

I did some work a couple months ago to split this up, and came up with this 
approach to splitting up the content:

* *Cluster and Node Management*: Define properties for the entire cluster; 
check the status of a cluster; remove replicas from a node; utilize a newly 
added node; add or remove roles for a node.
* *Collection Management*: Create, list, reload and delete collections; set 
collection properties; migrate documents to another collection; rebalance 
leaders; backup and restore collections.
* *Collection Aliasing*: Create, list or delete collection aliases; set alias 
properties.
* *Shard Management*: Create and delete a shard; split a shard into two or more 
additional shards; force a shard leader.
* *Replica Management*: Add or delete a replica; set replica properties; move a 
replica to a different node.

My existing local WIP leaves info on Async commands on the main 
collections-api.adoc page, but creates new pages for each of the bullets 
mentioned above, and moves the related API calls to those pages. Each topic 
will be smaller and easier for us to manage on an ongoing basis.

Since I did the work a while ago, I need to bring it up to date with master, so 
a patch & a branch with this work will be forthcoming shortly.
