Review Comment:
   Question: Why is this such different than deleting the SolrCloud/StatefulSet? Isn't this going to delete all data and stop the pods?

Review Comment:
   Do you think it makes sense to check again for the pod before proceeding to delete it? Maybe keep doing `REPLACENODE` until it's empty? there is still a race condition, but much shorter

+# SolrCloud Scaling
+_Since v0.8.0_
+
+Solr Clouds are complex distributed systems, and thus require additional help when trying to scale up or down.
+
+Scaling/Autoscaling can mean different things in different situations, and this is true even within the `SolrCloud.spec.autoscaling` section.
+- Replicas can be moved when new nodes are added or when nodes need to be taken down
+- Nodes can be added/removed if more or less resources are desired.
+
+The following sections describes all the features that the Solr Operator currently supports to aid in scaling & autoscaling SolrClouds.
+
+## Configuration
+
+The `autoscaling` section in the SolrCloud CRD can be configured in the following ways
+

+# SolrCloud Scaling
+_Since v0.8.0_
+
+Solr Clouds are complex distributed systems, and thus require additional help when trying to scale up or down.
+
+Scaling/Autoscaling can mean different things in different situations, and this is true even within the `SolrCloud.spec.autoscaling` section.
+- Replicas can be moved when new nodes are added or when nodes need to be taken down
+- Nodes can be added/removed if more or less resources are desired.
+
+The following sections describes all the features that the Solr Operator currently supports to aid in scaling & autoscaling SolrClouds.
+
+## Configuration
+
+The `autoscaling` section in the SolrCloud CRD can be configured in the following ways
+
+```yaml
+spec:
+  autoscaling:
+    vacatePodsOnScaleDown: true # Default: true
+```
+
+## Replica Movement
+
+Solr can be scaled up & down either manually or by `HorizontalPodAutoscaler`'s, however no matter how the `SolrCloud.Spec.Replicas` value
+changes, the Solr Operator must implement this change the same way.
+
+For now Replicas are not scaled up and down themselves, they are just moved to utilize new Solr pods or vacate soon-to-be-deleted Solr pods.
+
+### Solr Pod Scale-Down
+
+When the desired number of Solr Pods that should be run `SolrCloud.Spec.Replicas` is decreased,
+the `SolrCloud.spec.autoscaling.vacatePodsOnScaleDown` option determines whether the Solr Operator should move replicas
+off of the pods that are about to be deleted.
+
+When a StatefulSet, which the Solr Operator uses to run Solr pods, has its size decreased by `x` pods, it's the last
+`x` pods that are deleted. So if a StatefulSet `tmp` has size 4, it will have pods `tmp-0`, `tmp-1`, `tmp-2` and `tmp-3`.
+If that `tmp` then is scaled down to size 2, then pods `tmp-2` and `tmp-3` will be deleted because they are `tmp`'s last pods numerically.
+
+If Solr has replicas placed on the pods that will be deleted as a part of the scale-down, then it has a problem.
+Solr will expect that these replicas will eventually come back online, because they are a part of the clusterState.
+However, the Solr Operator has no expectations for these replicas to come back, because the cloud has been scaled down.
+Therefore, the safest option is to move the replicas off of these pods before the scale-down operation occurs.

Review Comment:
   I think this isn't very clear. I think a simpler explanation of what the operator will do would be better, something like: 
   ```
   The Solr Operator can update the cluster state to handle the scale-down operation by moving replicas off of the soon-to-be-deleted pods
   ```
   Or something like that. I feel all the explanation of the difference between Solr and Solr Operator just adds confusion.

Review Comment:
   Isn't there a `lock` annotation being used ((as I see blow)?

+Scaling/Autoscaling can mean different things in different situations, and this is true even within the `SolrCloud.spec.autoscaling` section.
+- Replicas can be moved when new nodes are added or when nodes need to be taken down
+- Nodes can be added/removed if more or less resources are desired.
+
+The following sections describes all the features that the Solr Operator currently supports to aid in scaling & autoscaling SolrClouds.
+
+## Configuration
+
+The `autoscaling` section in the SolrCloud CRD can be configured in the following ways

+  autoscaling:
+    vacatePodsOnScaleDown: true # Default: true

+

+
+### Solr Pod Scale-Down
+
+When the desired number of Solr Pods that should be run `SolrCloud.Spec.Replicas` is decreased,
+the `SolrCloud.spec.autoscaling.vacatePodsOnScaleDown` option determines whether the Solr Operator should move replicas
+off of the pods that are about to be deleted.
+
+When a StatefulSet, which the Solr Operator uses to run Solr pods, has its size decreased by `x` pods, it's the last
+`x` pods that are deleted. So if a StatefulSet `tmp` has size 4, it will have pods `tmp-0`, `tmp-1`, `tmp-2` and `tmp-3`.

+
+If `autoscaling.vacatePodsOnScaleDown` option is not enabled, then whenever the `SolrCloud.Spec.Replicas` is decreased,
+that change will be reflected in the StatefulSet immediately.
+Pods will be deleted even if replicas live on those pods.
+
+If `autoscaling.vacatePodsOnScaleDown` option is enabled, which it is by default, then the following steps occur:
+1. Acquire a cluster-ops lock on the SolrCloud. (This means other cluster operations, such as a rolling restart, cannot occur during the scale down operation)
+1. Scale down the last pod.
+   1. Mark the pod as "notReady" so that traffic is diverted away from this pod.

Review Comment:
   Question: Is this only an ingress change? traffic that goes directly to the pod should continue to succeed, right? Otherwise, there will be update errors, replicas going DOWN, unnecessarily
