Hari A V commented on ZOOKEEPER-1080:
-------------------------------------

Thank you for reviewing the patch and your suggestions. 

Yes, I can update the patch and change it to recipe. 


Presently the patch (ZOOKEEPER-1080.patch) is failing due to the following 
reason:-

I am using third party zkclient-0.1.0.jar (which is a wrapper over zookeeper 
apis) for the implementation of leader-election service. The Hudson CI is not 
picking this patch, instead it is picking only the zkclient.0.1.0.jar and its 
failing. 


Following are the couple of points, for choosing the zk-client.0.1.0.jar:
1: given more user friendly and meaningful apis like: subscribeChildChanges, 
subscribeDataChanges, subscribeStateChanges, unsubscribe, unSubscribeAll, 
deleteRecursive etc.
2: easy registeration and automatic re-registration of watches.
3: reconnection handling mechanism in case of timeout.
4: improved the efficiency of handling the events by introducing ZKEventThread 
queue.


I feel, its better to include this jar into the zookeeper project. Other option 
is, I needs to remove the dependency with the zkclient-0.1.0.jar and re-submit 
the patch again.
 

Could you please suggest a good way to prepare patch which can be running in 
Hudson CI.

Thanks & Regards,
Hari

> Currently Hadoop components such as NameNode and JobTracker are single point 
> of failure.
> If Namenode or JobTracker goes down, there service will not be available 
> until they are up and running again. If there was a Standby Namenode or 
> JobTracker available and ready to serve when Active nodes go down, we could 
> have reduced the service down time. Hadoop already provides a Standby 
> Namenode implementation which is not fully a "hot" Standby. 
> The common problem to be addressed in any such Active-Standby cluster is 
> Leader Election and Failure detection. This can be done using Zookeeper as 
> mentioned in the Zookeeper recipes.
> http://zookeeper.apache.org/doc/r3.3.3/recipes.html
> +Leader Election Service (LES)+
> Any Node who wants to participate in Leader Election can use this service. 
> They should start the service with required configurations. The service will 
> notify the nodes whether they should be started as Active or Standby mode. 
> Also they intimate any changes in the mode at runtime. All other complexities 
> can be handled internally by the LES.
