    I don't think this tests the problem. I tried this test with an unchanged 
version SharedValue and it passes.


> SharedValue could hold stall data when quourm membership changes

>             Project: Apache Curator
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Recipes
>    Affects Versions: 3.1.0
>         Environment: Linux
>            Reporter: Jian Fang
>
> We run a Zookeeper 3.5.1-alpha quorum on EC2 instances and the quorum members 
> could be changed, for example, one peer could be replaced by a new EC2 
> instance due to EC2 instance termination. We use Apache Curator 3.1.0 as the 
> zookeeper client. During our testing, we found the SharedValue data structure 
> could hold stall data during and after one peer is replaced and thus led to 
> the system failure. 
> We look into the SharedValue code. Seems it always returns the value from an 
> in-memory reference variable and the value is only updated by a watcher. If 
> for any reason, the watch is lost, then the value would never get a chance to 
> be updated again.
>  
> Right now, we added a connection state listener to force SharedValue to call 
> readValue(), i.e., read the data from zookeeper directly, if the connection 
> state has been changed to RECONNECTED to work around this issue.
> It would be great if this issue could be fixed in Curator directly.
