Yes, there is a way. One node on which replica needs to be created hit
curl ' http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/cores?action=CREATE&name=<corename>&collection=<collection>&shard=< <http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/cores?action=CREATE&name=mycore&collection=collection1&shard=shard2> shardid>' For example curl ' http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/cores?action=CREATE&name=mycore&collection=collection1&shard=shard2 ' see http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrCloud#Creating_cores_via_CoreAdmin for details.
