             Summary: Read-only server does not initialize database properly
                 Key: ZOOKEEPER-1462
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-1462
             Project: ZooKeeper
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: server
    Affects Versions: 3.4.3
            Reporter: Thawan Kooburat
            Assignee: Thawan Kooburat
            Priority: Critical
             Fix For: 3.4.3


Brief Description:
When a participant or observer get partitioned and restart as Read-only server. 
ZkDb doesn't get reinitialized. This causes the RO server to drop any incoming 
request with zxid > 0 

Error message:
Refusing session request for client /xx.xx.xx.xx:39875 
as it has seen zxid 0x2e00405fd9 our last zxid is 0x0 client must try another 
server

Steps to reproduce:
Start an RO-enabled observer connecting to an ensemble. Kill the ensemble and 
wait until the observer restart in RO mode. Zxid of this observer should be 0.

Description:
Before a server transition into LOOKING state, its database get closed as part 
of shutdown sequence. The database of leader, follower and observer get 
initialized as a side effect of participating in leader election protocol. (eg. 
observer will call registerWithLeader() and call getLastLoggedZxid() which 
initialize the db if not already).

However, RO server does not participate in this protocol so its DB doesn't get 
initialized properly
