Let's say you have machine A and machine B. you want to shutdown B. If all the shards on B have replicas (on A), you can shutdown B instantly. If there is a shard on B that has no replica, you should create one on machine A (using Core API), let it replicate the whole shard contents, and then you are safe to shutdown B.
[Changing the shard count of an existing collection is not possible for now, so MERGing cores is not relevant.] On Fri, Mar 29, 2013 at 11:23 AM, Furkan KAMACI <furkankam...@gmail.com>wrote: > Let's assume that I have two machine in a SolrCloud that works as a part of > cloud.
