So I setup a new solr server to point to my existing ZK configs.

When going to the admin UI on this new server I can see the shards/replica's of the existing collection, and can even query it, even tho this new server has no cores on it itself.

Is this all expected behaviour?

Is there any performance gain with what I have at this precise stage? The extra server certainly makes it appear i could balance more load/requests, but I guess the queries are just being forwarded on to the servers with the actual data?

Am I correct in thinking I can now create a new collection on this host, and begin to build up a new cluster? and they won't interfere with each other at all?

Also, that I'll be able to see both collections when using the admin UI Cloud page on any of the servers in either collection?

Thanks,
Rob

The whole _point_ of configsets is to re-use them in multiple
collections, so please do!

Hi,

Is it safe to create a new cluster but use an existing config set that's in
zookeeper?  Or does that config set contain the cluster status too?

I want to (re)-build a cluster from scratch, with a different amount of
shards, but not using shard-splitting.

Thanks,
Rob
