Yes, I do think it should be in the Ref Guide - it's something general users
may want, so we should guide them on how to connect it. The PDF attached is
mostly screenshots - if the hope is that the Ref Guide will show screenshots,
it would be helpful if those were attached directly to the issue. I don't know
that the page makes sense with that many step-by-step screenshots - we don't
even have that many covering the Admin UI, and DBVisualizer is not an
application developed by this community - but a few key ones would probably be
helpful.
As for where it should go, I wonder if we should take a step back and think
about the overall organization of docs for this new features. My current
understanding is that the JDBC client is only used with Parallel SQL features,
but is it more than that (either today or intended to be more in the future)?
If so, we should spend a minute or two thinking about the use cases to figure
out the best place for a new section.
_edit_: by the way, I don't mean to dismiss the effort to make those
screenshots, they are very helpful and clear.

> Key: SOLR-8521
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-8521
> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: SolrJ
> Affects Versions: Trunk
> Reporter: Kevin Risden
> Attachments: solr_jdbc_dbvisualizer_20160203.pdf
>
>
> Currently this requires the following:
> * a JDBC SQL client program (like DBVisualizer or SQuirrelSQL)
> * all jars from solr/dist/solrj-lib/* to be on the SQL client classpath
> * solr/dist/solr-solrj-6.0.0-SNAPSHOT.jar on the SQL client classpath
> * a valid JDBC connection string (like
> jdbc:solr://SOLR_ZK_CONNECTION_STRING?collection=COLLECTION_NAME)
> * without SOLR-8213, the username/password supplied by the SQL client will be
> ignored.
