I see. By definition of splitting, the new shards will have the same number of replicas as the original shard. You could use the replicationFactor>=2 to ensure that both of your solr nodes are used. You could also use the maxShardsPerNode parameter alone or in conjunction with the replicationFactor property to achieve your target state.
