David Smiley commented on SOLR-17519:
-------------------------------------

bq. (ZK) so this probably was never an issue even with nodes movements or 
migrations

Yes; assuming the ZK nodes are stable.

Another reason to exclusively use the configured Solr URLs (s) is that the 
operator might want to use a load balancer (may even _already_ be using one),  
not actually directly a Solr node itself.  It might be a single dependable URL.

> When using CloudSolrClient with HTTP URLs to Solr for the cluster state:
> If all live nodes disappear temporarily (hard cluster restart?), the client 
> can permanently fail to talk to the cluster, and thus would need to be 
> restarted to recover.
> Credit [~ilan] on the dev list:
> {quote}The current implementation removes non live nodes from the set of 
> nodes to connect to. Getting the live nodes requires connecting to a specific 
> node in the cluster that is therefore live when that happens. Worst case, if 
> there is a single node up in the cluster, the client ends with a single node 
> in its connection candidates list. For the issue to manifest, that Solr node 
> then has to go down. Subsequently, even if other nodes are up, the client 
> only has the address of a down node and can't connect.
> The fix is not a big deal. Nodes initially passed as configuration to the 
> client should never be removed from the set of candidate nodes to connect to, 
> even if they are not live. Other live nodes could be added to that set (and 
> removed from it if we so desire when they are no longer live) to increase 
> resiliency in case the cluster does have live nodes but all initially 
> configured nodes are not live. The design issue is treating the configured 
> set of nodes to connect to and the set of live nodes as one thing.
