This is exactly what it is supposed to do. These are the *core* names. Each core is a shard replica. The minimum value for shard count and replica count is 1. When making queries or update requests to Solr, you can still use the "abc" name, and SolrCloud will figure out which cores on which machines need to receive the request. Thanks, Shawn
