Restart Solr on port 9090. When it comes back up, you'll have exactly what you want. The leaders for both shards will be on the 8080 instance. Something to note -- BOTH of them are replicas. One of them happens to be designated the leader, and that designation can change at any time. It's not quite correct to say that you have N shards and one replica -- what you have is N shards and a replicationFactor of 2. Another thing to note - I hope these two instances of Solr are on separate hardware. If they aren't, then a server failure will take out your entire cloud. Thanks, Shawn
