No, it'd be removed everywhere (thrift and zk path). It'd basically get rid of the notion of 'offline' shards - your usage is essentially the same as the TopCommand I described. The trouble is that in a world of random ports a lot of bookkeeping overhead would be necessary to reliably maintain the notion of 'offline' or 'registered vs online' shards. As I understand it, the need for them was back when the layout manager relied on that knowledge but the default layout manager is more dynamic now. Do you just display them or is there another need in the console for them? Thanks, --tim
