Hi Shawn,thanks for your reply,
The following is my cluster status. The maxShardsPerNode configuration is 1,
but I created a collection search1. Both replicas of shard1 are assigned to
192.168.52.164:8280_solr this node.
Could this be a bug?

A setting of maxShardsPerNode=1 means that the collection can only place
one of its shards on each node. In actuality it's shard replicas that
it is referring to. A 3 shard collection with 2 replicas has a total of
6 shard replicas.
With 5 total nodes, you should probably use maxShardsPerNode=2 when you
create the collection.
I did this on a cloud example created with 4 nodes. I wanted to try it
with 5, but the example only allows up to 4. This is the distribution I
ended up with:

Based on this, I think that if you did maxShardsPerNode=2, 3 shards, and
2 replicas on a 5-node cloud, you would end up with 1 shard replica on 4
of the nodes, and 2 shard replicas on the fifth.
Thanks,
Shawn
