I'm using solr 4.1 . I have a cluster with 30 nodes, I use collections API's create command to create a collection of 5 shards and 2 replicas. I get a collection that is built on 6 nodes out of the 30, with multiple shards using the same nodes. There is nothing wrong with this, but as I have 30 nodes, I expect the collection to distribute among more nodes.
Note that I tried deleting the collection and creating it again, and always have the same "problem" (with different nodes, of course). Any idea how to achieve this without manually adding cores on the nodes that I choose? -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/how-does-collections-API-choose-nodes-for-CREATE-command-tp4044529.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
