Hi, By defaut SolrCloud partitions records by the hash of the uniqueKey field but we want to do some tests and partition the records by a signed integer field but keep the current uniqueKey unique. I've scanned through several issues concerning distributed index, custom hashing, shard policies etc but i have not found some concise examples or documentation or even blog post on this matter.
How do we set up shard partitioning via another than the default uniqueKey field? According to some older resolved issue CloudSolrServer should be cloud aware and send updates to the leader of the correct shards, how does it know this? Must we set up the same partitioning in SolrServer client as well? If so, how? The apidocs do not reveal a lot when i look through them. I probably totally missed an issue or discussion or wiki page. Thanks, Markus
