             Summary: Please add support for Collection API CREATE method to 
evenly distribute leader roles among instances
                 Key: SOLR-4492
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-4492
             Project: Solr
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: SolrCloud
            Reporter: Tim Vaillancourt


Currently in SolrCloud 4.1, a CREATE call to the Collection API will cause the 
server receiving the CREATE call to become the leader of all shards.

I would like to ask for the ability for the CREATE call to evenly distribute 
the leader role across all instances, ie: if I create 3 shards over 3 SOLR 4.1 
instances, each instance/node would only be the leader of 1 shard.

This would be logically consistent with the way replicas are randomly 
distributed by this same call across instances/nodes.

Currently, this CREATE call will cause the server receiving the call to become 
the leader of 3 shards.

curl -v 
'http://<HOST>:8983/solr/admin/collections?action=CREATE&name=test&numShards=3&replicationFactor=2&maxShardsPerNode=2'

PS: Thank you SOLR developers for your contributions!
