Mark Miller commented on SOLR-3088: ----------------------------------- I've actually been working on that right now because I need it for a test I'm writing. What I realized pretty much immediately was that I needed a way to pass that param down the chain so that the overseer eventually sees it. You should double check what I have done probably. What I found is that it seems only the overseer looks at the numShards sys prop - so it won't matter if its set on other nodes? Anyway, what I settled for at the moment is, you can set the numShards on the cloud descriptor - its not stored, so you may not always get it back in the future, it's just a startup param. Then num_shards is also registered as part of the core state in zk - again it's only needed once though. This lets us specify numShards per core though - which is kind of what you need to support it in CoreAdminHandler. Because the numShard will stay in the core_state, I'm not yet sure how that will work if you end up being able to reshard by starting a core with a different number... > create shard placeholders > ------------------------- > > Key: SOLR-3088 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-3088 > Project: Solr > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: SolrCloud > Reporter: Yonik Seeley > Fix For: 4.0 > > > When creating a new collection, a placeholder for each shard should be > created. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
