Rakesh R commented on BOOKKEEPER-661: ------------------------------------- bq.On any unrelated note, why do we register readonly bookies in zookeeper. I don't see it used anywhere on the client? Rakesh R, perhaps you remember? Hi Ivan, As I recollect, readonly bookie information is used in the following cases: # Rereplication : Auditor will be using all the bookies(available + r-o bookies) to see failures. # There is a logic to close channels to dead bookies. This readonly bookieId is used to make it alive and excluding from deadbookie list. # Also, exposed shell command to know the r-o bookies > Turn readonly back to writable if spaces are reclaimed. > ------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: BOOKKEEPER-661 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BOOKKEEPER-661 > Project: Bookkeeper > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: bookkeeper-server > Reporter: Sijie Guo > Assignee: Sijie Guo > Fix For: 4.3.0 > > Attachments: BOOKKEEPER-661.diff, BOOKKEEPER-661.diff, > BOOKKEEPER-661_662.diff > > > should be able to turn a bookie from readonly back to writable if the spaces > are reclaimed. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.1.5#6160)
