Description

It is useful to add comments/notes to a policy rule to explain why it was put in place or what it does. Although JSON comments are supported by Solr but the comments are lost when parsed and persisted to ZK.

{"replica": "<2", "shard":"#EACH", "node":"#ANY", 
"comment":"Do not keep more than one replica of a shard in any node" }
