Is it possible to run DELETESHARD commands in async mode? Google searches seem to indicate yes, but not definitively.
My local experience indicates otherwise. If I start with an async SPLITSHARD like so: http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/collections?action=splitshard&collection=2Gp&shard=shard1_0_0&async=12-foo-1 Then I get back the expected response format, with <str name="requestid"> 12-foo-1</str> And I can later query for the result via REQUESTSTATUS. However if I try an async DELETESHARD like so: http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/collections?action=deleteshard&collection=2Gp&shard=shard1_0_0&async=12-foo-4 The response includes the command result, indicating that the command was not run async: <lst name="success"> <lst name="192.168.1.106:8983_solr"> <lst name="responseHeader"> <int name="status">0</int> <int name="QTime">16</int> </lst> </lst> </lst> And in addition REQUESTSTATUS calls for that requestId fail with "Did not find taskid [12-foo-4] in any tasks queue". Synchronous deletes are causing problems for me in production as they are timing out in some cases. Thanks, Ian p.s. I'm on version 5.0.0
