Arshad Mohammad commented on ZOOKEEPER-2554: -------------------------------------------- As per my understanding, in {{org.apache.zookeeper.server.quorum.QuorumPeer.updateLearnerType(QuorumVerifier)}} bellow code causing the problem. {code} // I'm not in the view if (getLearnerType()!=LearnerType.PARTICIPANT){ setLearnerType(LearnerType.PARTICIPANT); LOG.info("Becoming a non-voting participant"); reconfigFlagSet(); return true; } {code} getLearnerType() is LearnerType.OBSERVER in this case but this code changes learner type to LearnerType.PARTICIPANT blindly. > reconfig can not add new server as observer > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: ZOOKEEPER-2554 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-2554 > Project: ZooKeeper > Issue Type: Bug > Components: server > Affects Versions: 3.5.0, 3.5.1, 3.5.2 > Reporter: Arshad Mohammad > Assignee: Arshad Mohammad > Priority: Critical > Attachments: ZOOKEEPER-2554-01.patch > > > Try to add new observer server using reconfig API, server gets added as > participant. > STEPS: > # create 3 node cluster. > {code} > server.0=127.0.0.1:11223:11224:participant;127.0.0.1:11222 > server.1=127.0.0.1:11226:11227:participant;127.0.0.1:11225 > server.2=127.0.0.1:11229:11230:participant;127.0.0.1:11228 > {code} > # Suppose the 2 is the leader in the above cluster.
