Solr's Administration page (found by default at `\http://hostname:8983/solr/`), provides a section with menu items for monitoring indexing and performance statistics.
A ZooKeeper Command Line Interface (CLI) script is available to allow you to interact directly with Solr configuration files stored in ZooKeeper.
This pag also includes information about index distribution and replication, and information on all threads running in the JVM at the time.
While Solr's Administration UI includes pages dedicated to the state of your SolrCloud cluster, it does not allow you to download or modify related configuration files.
There is also a section where you can run queries, and an assistance area.
TIP: See the section <<cloud-screens.adoc#cloud-screens,Cloud Screens>> for more information about using the Admin UI screens.
In addition, SolrCloud provides its own administration page (found at http://localhost:8983/solr/#/~cloud), as well as a few tools available via a ZooKeeper Command Line Utility (CLI). The CLI scripts found in `server/scripts/cloud-scripts` let you upload configuration information to ZooKeeper, in the same two ways that were shown in the examples in <<parameter-reference.adoc#parameter-reference,Parameter Reference>>. It also provides a few other commands that let you link collection sets to collections, make ZooKeeper paths or clear them, and download configurations from ZooKeeper to the local filesystem.

.Solr's zkcli.sh vs ZooKeeper's zkCli.sh vs Solr Start Script
Many of the functions provided by the zkCli.sh script are also provided by the <<solr-control-script-reference.adoc#solr-control-script-reference,Solr Control Script>>, which may be more familiar as the start script ZooKeeper maintenance commands are very similar to Unix commands.
.Solr's zkcli.sh vs ZooKeeper's zkCli.sh
[IMPORTANT]
====
The `zkcli.sh` provided by Solr is not the same as the https://zookeeper.apache.org/doc/trunk/zookeeperStarted.html#sc_ConnectingToZooKeeper[`zkCli.sh` included in ZooKeeper distributions].
ZooKeeper's `zkCli.sh` provides a completely general, application-agnostic shell for manipulating data in ZooKeeper. Solr's `zkcli.sh` discussed in this section is specific to Solr, and has command line arguments specific to dealing with Solr data in ZooKeeper.

== Using Solr's ZooKeeper CLI
Use the `help` option to get a list of available commands from the script itself, as in `./server/scripts/cloud-scrips/zkcli.sh help`.
Both `zkcli.sh` (for Unix environments) and `zkcli.bat` (for Windows environments) support the following command line options:

|Short |Parameter Usage |Meaning
| |`-cmd <arg>` |CLI Command to be executed: `bootstrap`, `upconfig`, `downconfig`, `linkconfig`, `makepath`, `get`, `getfile`, `put`, `putfile`, `list`, `clear` or `clusterprop`. This parameter is **mandatory**.
|`-z` |`-zkhost <locations>` |ZooKeeper host address. This parameter is *mandatory* for all CLI commands.
|`-c` |`-collection <name>` |For `linkconfig`: name of the collection.
|`-d` |`-confdir <path>` |For `upconfig`: a directory of configuration files. For downconfig: the destination of files pulled from ZooKeeper
|`-h` |`-help` |Display help text.
|`-n` |`-confname <arg>` |For `upconfig`, `linkconfig`, `downconfig`: name of the configuration set.
|`-r` |`-runzk <port>` |Run ZooKeeper internally by passing the Solr run port; only for clusters on one machine.
|`-s` |`-solrhome <path>` |For `bootstrap` or when using `-runzk`: the *mandatory* solrhome location.
| |`-name <name>` |For `clusterprop`: the *mandatory* cluster property name.
| |`-val <value>` |For `clusterprop`: the cluster property value. If not specified, *null* will be used as value.

This command will add or modify a single cluster property in `clusterprops.json`. Use this command instead of the usual getfile -> edit -> putfile cycle. Unlike the CLUSTERPROP REST API, this command does *not* require a running Solr cluster.
