Nomar Morado commented on ZOOKEEPER-1044:
-----------------------------------------
I am looking at QuorumPeer and trying to figure out how to get ZooKeeper to be
able to execute the reconfig API to change role of a peer.
It does not seem straightforward.
I have 4 nodes - one is observer - and in some cases i wanted to be able to
promote it to participant and vice versa.
Can someone please help?
Thanks.

> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-1044
> Project: ZooKeeper
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: quorum
> Affects Versions: 3.3.0
> Reporter: Vishal Kher
> Assignee: Alexander Shraer
> Fix For: 3.5.0
>
>
> Requirement: functionality that will reconfigure
> a OBSERVER to become a voting member and vice versa.
> Example of usage:
> 1. Maintain the Quorum size without changing the cluster size - in a 5
> node cluster with 2 observers, I decide to decommission a voting
> member. Then, I would like to configure one of my observers to be a
> follower without any down time.
> 2. Added a new server to the cluster that has better resources than
> one of the voting peers. Make the new node as voting peer and the old
> one as observer.
> 3. Reduce the size of voting member for performance reasons.
> Fix to ZOOKEEPER-107 might automatically give us this functionality.
> It will be good to confirm that, and if needed, highlight work
> that might be needed in addition to ZOOKEEPER-107.
