I am using Solr 4.1. I created collection1 consisting of 2 leaders and 2 replicas (2 shards) at boot time.
After the cluster is up, I am trying to create collection2 with 2 leaders and 2 replicas just like collection1. I am using following collections API for that: http://localhost:7575/solr/admin/collections?action=CREATE&name=collection2&numShards=2&replicationFactor=2&collection.configName=myconf&createNodeSet=localhost:8983_solr,localhost:7574_solr,localhost:7575_solr,localhost:7576_solr Yes, collection2 does get created. But I see a problem - createNodeSet parameter is not being honored. All 4 nodes are not being used to create collection2, only 3 are being used. Is this a bug or I don't understand how this parameter should be used? What is the best way to create collection2? Can I specify both collections in solr.xml in the solr home dir in all nodes and launch them? Do I have to get the configs for collection2 uploaded to zookeeper before I launch the nodes?
