> BDB HA: Node may remain detached from group following loss of quorum

> Key: QPID-6972
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-6972
> Project: Qpid
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Java Broker
> Affects Versions: 0.30, 0.32, qpid-java-6.0
> Reporter: Keith Wall
> Labels: bdbstore, high-availability
>
> If a master detects that it has lost quorum (which may occur owing to a user
> generated transaction, or an internally generated 'ping' transaction, failing
> to see the required number of replica acknowledgements), the underlying JE
> environment {{ReplicatedEnvironment}} is automatically restarted (the old one
> closed and a new one created to replace it). This approach ensures that
> clients reconnect to a new master in a timely way.
> There is a coding error in the CoalescingCommitter that means that the JE
> environment restart may not complete properly. If quorum disappears whilst
> there are jobs on the CoalescingCommitter's job queue, the
> CoalescingCommitter's error handling will cause the BDB EnvironmentFacade to
> be closed. This is okay for the BDB non-HA case as such an exception is
> always fatal, but for HA, calling {{ReplicatedEnvironmentFacade#close()}}
> prevents the environment from being recreated.
> This effect of this defect is that a node may disappear from the group every
> time quorum is temporarily lost. This will keep occuring until quorum no
> longer remains, at which point the business will stop. Bouncing the affected
> brokers (or restarting the VHNs) will restore the service, without message
> loss.
