>
> *Case1-* N/w disconnection can bring both the client nodes to be in ELECTED
> state. Current LeaderElectionSupport(LES) f/w handles only 'NodeDeletion'.
>
> Consider the scenario where ELECTED and READY nodes are running. Say ELECTED
> node's n/w got failed and is "Disconnected" from ZooKeeper. But it will
> behave as ELECTED as it is not getting any events from the
> LeaderElectionSupport(LES) framework.
> After sessiontimeout, node in READY state will be notified by 'NodeDeleted'
> event and will go to ELECTED state.
> *Problem:*
> Both the node becomes ELECTED and finally the user sees two Master (ELECTED)
> node and cause inconsistencies.
> *Case2-* Also in this case, Let's say if user has started only one client
> node and becomes ELECTED. After sometime n/w has disconnected with the
> ZooKeeper server and the session got expired.
> *Problem:*
> Still the client node will be in the ELECTED state. After sometime if user
> has started the second client node. Again both the nodes becomes ELECTED.
