Timothy Potter commented on SOLR-6933:
--------------------------------------

bq. leving both of those commands alone
+1

So a couple of basic questions shake out of this. First, what does the usage 
(bin/solr create -help) say? Options like -shards, -maxShardsPerNode, 
-replicationFactor don't apply when creating a core. I think the help should be 
explicit about cores vs. collections. Second, if the user tries to pass one of 
the collection specific options (say -shards 10) when Solr is running on cloud 
mode, I think the script should error out and tell the user that option is only 
when running in cloud mode. So if you're with me so far, then take a step back, 
now the 2-modes of Solr are still very much in the forefront of the experience 
around bin/solr create, which isn't all that different from what we have now 
with create_core and create_collection, except for the most basic usage of that 
action, ie.
{code}
bin/solr create -n foo
{code}

So if we think there's real benefit to having a "create" alias that's smart 
about the mode Solr is in, then I'll add it. But I still think the cores vs. 
collections problem doesn't go away with this create action.



> bin/solr script should just have a single create action that creates a core 
> or collection depending on the mode solr is running in

> instead of create_core and create_collection, just have create that creates a 
> core or a collection based on which mode Solr is running in.
