Mark Miller commented on SOLR-3939:
-----------------------------------

Joel: It could just be timing - live nodes are likely faster to update than the 
cluster state - when you just unload a core, the live node stays - so the 
unloaded core will only not take part in leader election when the leader 
candidate gets the new cluster state. When you take down a vm, the live node 
goes. Perhaps this is noticed faster. In either case, it's a race.

Yonik:

for case one, I'd like to still sync if possible - but if there are no starting 
versions in the updatelog, don't worry if the sync was not a success?

I still have to add a test and fix for case 2.

> When a leader core is unloaded using the core admin api, the followers in the 
> shard go into recovery but do not come out. Leader election doesn't take 
> place and the shard goes down.
> This effects the ability to move a micro-shard from one Solr instance to 
> another Solr instance.
> The problem does not occur 100% of the time but a large % of the time. 
> To setup a test, startup Solr Cloud with a single shard. Add cores to that 
> shard as replicas using core admin. Then unload the leader core using core 
> admin.
