>From my understanding.
In SOLR cloud the CompositeIdDocRouter uses HashbasedDocRouter.
CompositeId router is default if your numShards>1 on collection creation.
CompositeId router generates an hash using the uniqueKey defined in your
schema.xml to route your documents to a dedicated shard.
You can use select?q=xyz&shard.keys=uniquekey to focus your search to hit only
the shard that has your shard.key

Subject: shardkey
Hi,
We are using Solr 4.3.0 SolrCloud (5 shards, 10 replicas). I have couple
questions on shard key.
1. Looking at the admin GUI, how do I know which field is being used
for shard
key.
2. What is the default shard key used?
3. How do I override the default shard key?
Thanks.
