How to Split solr shard in solr cloud

问题

I am using solr 4.10.3 in solrCloud mode. I have one shard and 3 replica. external zookeeper ensemble in being used. My document in one index has been increase too much. Now I want to create more shards. I tries to use

http://localhost:8983/solr/admin/collections?action=SPLITSHARD&collection=collection1&shard=shard1

But it gives following error

Error executing split operation for collection: collection1 parent shard: shard1
