Hi, the only way that i find to solve my problem is to do the split using a solr instance configured in standalone mode.
curl http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/cores?action=SPLIT&core=sepa&path=/nas_perf_2/FRAGMENTS/17MINDEXES/1/index&path=/nas_perf/FRAGMENTS/17MINDEXES/2/index In solr_cloud mode does the shards splitting action work properly for large shards?
