Not as far as I understand. Cores are loaded/created by the local Solr server based on solr.xml and then registered with ZK, so that ZK know what cores are out there and how they are organized in shards. > because you have a slightly different config between Node 1 & 2: > http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/Replication-setup-with-SolrCloud-Zk-td2952602.html I have two shards, each shard having a master and a slave core. Cores are located so that master and slave are on different nodes. This protects search (but not indexing) from node failure.
