It may not be obvious but as of now the replication factor doesn't really persist in SolrCloud. There's a JIRA opened for the same but it's not as trivial as it may look. As far as the replication factor of the sub shards is concerned, the number of replicas upon split is equal to the number of replicas of the parent (original) shard. After the split, you may however use core admin API to add replicas.
Hope that clarifies your query. Sent from my iPhone On 21-May-2013, at 23:04, yriveiro <yago.rive...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > > I'm playing a little with the new feature to SPLIT shards.
