------------------------------------------

             Summary: ZooKeeper not starting because acceptedEpoch is less than 
the currentEpoch
                 Key: ZOOKEEPER-2307
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-2307
             Project: ZooKeeper
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: server
            Reporter: Arshad Mohammad
            Assignee: Arshad Mohammad
            Priority: Critical
             Fix For: 3.5.2, 3.6.0


This issue occurred in one of our test environment where disk was being changed 
to read only very frequently.
The the scenario is as follows:
# Configure three node ZooKeeper cluster, lets say nodes are A, B and C
# Start A and B. Both A and B start successfully, quorum is running.
# Start C, because of IO error C fails to update acceptedEpoch file. But C also 
starts successfully, joins the quorum as follower
# Stop C
# Start C, bellow exception with message "The accepted epoch, 0 is less than 
the current epoch, 1" is thrown
