Yonik Seeley commented on SOLR-4998:
------------------------------------
bq. A Slice has as many Shards as the Collection's "numShards"
Otis: not quite - a shard in the API is logical.
http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrCloud#Managing_collections_via_the_Collections_API
"numShards: The number of logical shards (sometimes called slices) to be
created as part of the collection."
> Make the use of Slice and Shard consistent across the code and document base
