Yonik Seeley commented on SOLR-3755:
------------------------------------
We need to associate hash ranges with shards and allow overlapping shards (i.e.
1-10, 1-5,6-10)
General Strategy for splitting w/ no service interruptions:
- Bring up 2 new cores on the same node, covering the new hash ranges
- Both cores should go into recovery mode (i.e. leader should start
forwarding updates)
- leader does a hard commit and splits the index
- Smaller indexes are installed on the new cores
- Overseer should create new replicas for new shards
- Mark old shard as “retired” – some mechanism to shut it down (after there is
an acceptable amount of coverage of the new shards via replicas)
Future: allow splitting even with “custom” shards

> we should also add a way to add additional shards dynamically by splitting
> existing shards.
