Meyer > Assignee: Michi Mutsuzaki > Priority: Minor > Attachments: ZOOKEEPER-1856.patch > > > If a client has a 2 server list, and is currently connected to the last > server in that list, and that server then goes offline, the addrvec_next() > call handle_error() will push the client to the start of the list and > terminate the connection. > Then, the zoo_cycle_next_server() call in zookeeper_interest will be called > in response to the connection failure, and the client will cycle back to the > failed server. > In this way, a client who has a list of only 2 servers can get stuck on the > one failed server. This would only be an issue in an ensemble larger than 2 > of course, because failing 1 out of 2 would lead to quorum loss anyway. > There are other harmonics possible if every other server in the list is > failed, but this is simplest to reproduce in a 3 server ensemble where the > client only knows about 2 servers, one of which then fails. There are > probably some elegant fixes here, but I think the simplest is to add a flag > to track whether a server has been accessed before, and if it hasn't, don't > call zoo_cycle_next_server() at the top of the zookeeper_interest() function. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
