Hi devs, I have written up a design doc for allowing tombstoned replicas to participate in Raft consensus voting, which will help improve availability in certain automatic-recovery scenarios. This relates to the work-in-progress patch series currently up on gerrit <http://gerrit.cloudera.org:8080/6960>. See also KUDU-871 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KUDU-871>.
You can find the document here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1hWDGNbYSKOVcbVstAzjHl5qVm5Uqm8eGNOYJLJVJg8M/ Once this feature is committed I will transfer the relevant portions of this doc to markdown format and commit it to the source repo with the other permanent design docs. Thanks in advance for any input. Mike
