Setting up SolrCloud on multiple hosts is exactly the same as a single host. You just install Solr on all the hosts you care about and start it up. As long as the hosts can talk to each other via HTTP, it's all magic.
The "glue" is Zookeeper. All the Solrs are started up with the same ZK ensemble string. So when you start Solr on host1 it registers itself with ZK. When you start another Solr on host2 it does the same. But then ZK sends a message to host1 informing it "there's another Solr out there" and now the Solr on host1 knows the url of Solr on host2 (and vice versa). For just getting started, you can just use a single Zookeeper but for prod situations you'll want 3 or more.
