Raul Gutierrez Segales commented on ZOOKEEPER-1807:
---------------------------------------------------

I think what's happening is that when we send the initial notifications to all 
members, as opposed to just voting members as it was before, we trigger off a 
self-replicating cascade of notifications. Each Observers gets the notification 
and then by virtue of:

{noformat}
                        /*                                                      
                                                                      
                         * If it is from a non-voting server (such as an 
observer or                                                                  
                         * a non-voting follower), respond right away.          
                                                                      
                         */
                        if(!self.getVotingView().containsKey(response.sid)){
                           .....
                        }
{noformat}

it replies back to each Observer and so on.  So sounds to me that this needs to 
match what we have  in sendNotifications and actually check response.sid 
against self.getAllKnownServerIds() to avoid the endless echoing of 
notifications that I am seeing.

Thoughts [~shralex], [~fpj] ?

> Hey [~shralex],
> I noticed today that my Observers are spamming each other trying to open 
> connections to the election port. I've got tons of these:
> {noformat}
> 2013-11-01 22:19:45,819 - DEBUG [WorkerSender[myid=13]] - There is a 
> connection already for server 9
> 2013-11-01 22:19:45,819 - DEBUG [WorkerSender[myid=13]] - There is a 
> connection already for server 10
> 2013-11-01 22:19:45,819 - DEBUG [WorkerSender[myid=13]] - There is a 
> connection already for server 6
> 2013-11-01 22:19:45,819 - DEBUG [WorkerSender[myid=13]] - There is a 
> connection already for server 12
> 2013-11-01 22:19:45,819 - DEBUG [WorkerSender[myid=13]] - There is a 
> connection already for server 14
> {noformat}
> and so and so on ad nauseam. 
> Now, looking around I found this inside FastLeaderElection.java from when you 
> committed ZOOKEEPER-107:
> {noformat}
>      private void sendNotifications() {
> -        for (QuorumServer server : self.getVotingView().values()) {
> -            long sid = server.id;
> -
> +        for (long sid : self.getAllKnownServerIds()) {
> +            QuorumVerifier qv = self.getQuorumVerifier();
> {noformat}
> Is that really desired? I suspect that is what's causing Observers to try to 
> connect to each other (as opposed as just connecting to participants). I'll 
> give it a try now and let you know. (Also, we use observer ids that are > 0, 
> and I saw some parts of the code that might not deal with that assumption - 
> so it could be that too..).
