This is not a problem per se, just want to verify that we're not able to specify which server shard splits are created as of 4.3.1? From what I've seen, the new cores for the sub-shards are created on the leader of the shard being split.
Of course it's easy enough to migrate the new sub-shards to another node after the fact especially since replication occurs automatically for the splits. Seems like if the shard being split is large enough that doing the split on the same node could cause some resource issues so might be better to do the split on another server. Or is my assumption that the split operation is pretty expensive incorrect? Lastly, also seems like we don't have control over where the replicas of the split shards go? Cheers, Tim
