SolrCloud hasn't done anything on the indexing front yet (it still relies on user partitioning). The problem you point out is why a simple hash won't work well. When we do support indexing, we'll be able to figure out what document goes to what shard by consulting the state we keep in zookeeper. -Yonik http://lucenerevolution.org Lucene/Solr Conference, Boston Oct 7-8
