Hi all,

From 
https://lucene.apache.org/solr/guide/6_6/shards-and-indexing-data-in-solrcloud.html#ShardsandIndexingDatainSolrCloud-DocumentRouting
 
<https://lucene.apache.org/solr/guide/6_6/shards-and-indexing-data-in-solrcloud.html#ShardsandIndexingDatainSolrCloud-DocumentRouting>,
 and various posts on the mailing list, the implication is that the content of 
the “router.field” field is used as the shard name.

But on 
https://lucene.apache.org/solr/guide/6_6/collections-api.html#CollectionsAPI-create
 
<https://lucene.apache.org/solr/guide/6_6/collections-api.html#CollectionsAPI-create>,
 the description of “router.field” says:

> If this field is specified, the router will look at the value of the field in 
> an input document to compute the hash and identify a shard instead of looking 
> at the uniqueKey field


I’m wondering which is correct.

Thanks,

— Ken
