I'm assuming SolrCloud, because you said "collection" and "replication factor" which are SolrCloud concepts. As soon as you start the new node pointing at your zookeeper ensemble, it will be part of the cluster and will accept requests for any collection in the cluster. No index data will end up on the new node until you take action with the Collections API, though. One way to put data on the new node is the ADDREPLICA action. Another is to create a brand new collection with the shard and replication characteristics you want, and use the new collection instead of the old one, or create an alias to use whatever name you like. You can use SPLITSHARD and then ADDREPLICA/DELETEREPLICA to put *some* of the data from an existing collection on the new node. https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/solr/Collections+API I think the way I would proceed is to create a brand new collection set up with the correct number of shards and replicas to use the new node, populate that collection, delete the old collection, and set up a collection alias so that the new collection can be accessed with the old collection's name.
