modify number of Shard

[Sushil K Tripathi <tr...@hotmail.com>]

Team,


We have a existing setup of Solr Cluster and we need to modify the current number of Shard from 4 to 6. Can somebody confirm if it is possible to modify the number of Shard or i just need to recreate the whole collection.


With Warm Regards...

If you're using the default compositeId routing then this will not be
possible. You can increase to any multiple of 4 using SPLITSHARD, but
you can't just add an arbitrary number of shards.

If you're using the implicit router then you can add as many shards as you want.

Best,
Erick
