Thanks a lot Otis, While reading the SolrCloud documentation to understand how SolrCloud could run on HDFS, I got confused with leader, replica, "non-replica" shards, core, index, and collections. Once it is specified that one cannot add shards, then that one can add replica-only shards, then that last "Shard Splitting" paragraph states that something changed starting with Solr 4.3. But it doesn't states that splitting shards can end in a new non-replica shard, in a just added node, thus increasing the amount of storage available to the index / collection. It states that "split action effectively makes two copies of the data as new shards" instead, which tastes a lot like replica style shards. So does it? Could there be some sort of tutorial describing how to add available storage capacity for index / collection, thus adding a node / shard - core that one can send new documents to be indexed? (of course, load-balancing would be trigered, so it looks like documents would be added to shards out of a set of nodes). Thanks,
