Gregory Chanan commented on SOLR-5656:
--------------------------------------

bq. I figure this will be reused in a few other places that have to choose 
nodes given a clusterstate.

I definitely think this sort of thing is useful, I just find it difficult to 
parse currently

bq. The * marks a replica as the one being replaced. The current replacement 
algorithm looks at each replica - when it finds one, it looks for the best 
place to replace it given a clusterstate.

What I mean here is, for example, csr1-2*r2, does the * bind to (r1-2) or (r2).

bq. Currently it defaults to 1. I was going to make it explicit, but not a lot 
of error checking yet anyway, so left it for further improvement later. I 
figure this will be reused in a few other places that have to choose nodes 
given a clusterstate.

I think making it explicit is a good idea.  If being explicit isn't required, 
is csr-2 legal?

bq. It just overrides a specific state for a replica in clusterstate.json - so 
rather than ACTIVE, you could mark them as RECOVERING or DOWN.

I wonder if it would be clearer if these states were non-intersecting with the 
node specification.  So like, A=active, D=down, F=failed, R=recovering or if 
you are worried about case, could make recovering C or M (for moving, there 
isn't really a difference from a replica being moved vs recovering logically I 
think)?  Then you wouldn't need the minus either.  A default of "A" there seems 
reasonable too.  What do you think?

> When using HDFS, the Overseer should have the ability to reassign the cores 
> from failed nodes to running nodes.
> Given that the index and transaction logs are in hdfs, it's simple for 
> surviving hardware to take over serving cores for failed hardware.
> There are some tricky issues around having the Overseer handle this for you, 
> but seems a simple first pass is not too difficult.
> This will add another alternative to replicating both with hdfs and solr.
> It shouldn't be specific to hdfs, and would be an option for any shared file 
> system Solr supports.
