Hello @Almolki 

 

Thanks for using Cloudera Community. Based on the Post, Your Team is experiencing [1] on Solr 8.4.1. 

 

The Issue being faced by your Team is a Known Limitation of Solr, wherein each Shard can host 2B Documents Maximum [2]. Your Team have following Choices:

  • Use SplitShard to split the Shard with 2B Documents into 2 Daughter Shards. Refer [3] for using SplitShard API. 
  • If your Team have the Source Data, Create a Collection afresh with Higher Shards & Reindex the Source Data afresh. 

Kindly review & let us know if your Queries have been addressed.
