Many thanks Timothy, I tried this today but ran into issues getting the
new collection to persist (so that I could search for the parameter).
It's good to have this confirmed as a viable approach though, and I'll
persevere with this tomorrow.
If I figure it out I'll reply with the details.
Thanks again,
Daniel

Hi Daniel,
I'm not sure how this would apply to an existing collection (in your case
collection1). Try using the collections API to create a new collection and pass
the router.field parameter. Grep'ing over the code, the parameter is named:
router.field (not routerField or routeField).

Subject: Setting routerField/shardKey on specific collection?
Hi,
I'm using Solr 4.6 and trying to specify a router.field (shard key) on a
specific collection so that all documents with the same value in the
specified field end up in the same collection.
However, I can't find an example of how to do this via the solr.xml? I
see in this ticket https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-5017 there
is a mention of a routeField property.
Should the solr.xml contain the following?
<cores adminPath="/admin/cores" defaultCoreName="collection1">
<core name="collection1" instanceDir="collection1"
routerField="consolidationGroupId" />
</cores>
Any help would be greatly appreciate? I've been yak shaving all
afternoon reading various Jira tickets and wikis trying to get this to
work :-)
Best wishes,
Daniel
