------------------------------------

             Summary: Collection API: CloudSolrServer cannot be used to create 
collection with referencing an existing collection
                 Key: SOLR-4140
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-4140
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: multicore, SolrCloud
    Affects Versions: 4.0
            Reporter: Per Steffensen
            Priority: Minor


CloudSolrServer needs an existing collection to be able to forward requests. 
For some requests it is not logical that you ned to have or reference an 
existing collection. E.g. if you want to use CloudSolrServer to create a 
collection - especially:
* If you have no collections already and want to create your first collection
* If you like to create your CloudSolrServer once and for all, and want to set 
default-collection on it to point to your favorite collection, but also use 
this CloudSolrServer to create this favorite collection

Yes, HttpSolrServer can be used, but
* Some of us like to use CloudSolrServer for everything
* Using HttpSolrServer you need to check youself which nodes are running, in 
order to send the create-request to one of them
