Noble Paul commented on SOLR-565:
---------------------------------

It seems less useful if I assign 1 url for one shard . No a lot more useful 
than what it is now.This actually imposes the user to use a loadbalancer

Ideally the shards.properties can have something like this
{code}
#comma separated values per host
shard1=host1:port/solr,host2:port/solr
shard2=host3:port/solr,host4:port/solr
shard3=host5:port/solr,host6:port/solr
{code}

The distributed search should internally do a round-robin between each host for 
a shard

> As systems grow, it's better to manage shards with in solr, rather than 
> managing each client.
