Emmanuel Bernard commented on HSEARCH-472:
------------------------------------------

The problem with the ShardIndexingStrategy piloting when a new shard should be added is that in a clustered system, you will get nodes with different number of shards.
It seems that a manual process forcing the increase of shards is safer. On the other hand the case where you want to add a new shard when a new organization or user comes in on the fly has to be "manually triggered".

> Hibernate Search's shard support has added the ability to select a shard based on a parameter of the query; however, you must use a fixed number of shards.  In order to best support our use case originally reported in http://opensource.atlassian.com/projects/hibernate/browse/HSEARCH-470 it would be necessary to add support for dynamically added shards at runtime.
