Noble Paul commented on SOLR-4221:
----------------------------------

bq.Another usecase is to have multiple collections, each with different number 
of shards and different #replicas.

This is why I feel we should not automatically create cores in nodes that come 
up. The best thing to do is

Any new node will just not participate in any collection (unless a shard has 
fewer nodes than replicationFactor)

There should be an explicit ASSIGN_NODE command to add/remove nodes to/from a 
shard.  
It should be possible to do an ASSIGN_NODE without specifying a nodename in 
which case the overseer would look for free nodes in the cluster and add to the 
specified shard 
 
when a new shard is created by CREATESHARD command or when a SPLITSHARD command 
this nodes could be automatically be taken up.
