Patrick Hunt commented on ZOOKEEPER-2503: ----------------------------------------- Thanks for the feedback [~dbenediktson] - any chance you could contribute that patch back? (if so please create another jira for it linked to this). Makes sense to close this hole, perhaps in 3.5+? > Inconsistency between myid documentation and implementation > ----------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: ZOOKEEPER-2503 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-2503 > Project: ZooKeeper > Issue Type: Bug > Components: server > Affects Versions: 3.4.9, 3.5.2 > Reporter: Michael Han > Fix For: 3.5.3, 3.4.10 > > > In ZK documentation, we have: > "The myid file consists of a single line containing only the text of that > machine's id. So myid of server 1 would contain the text "1" and nothing > else. The id must be unique within the ensemble and should have a value > between 1 and 255." > This however is not enforced in code, which should be fixed either in > documentation that we remove the restriction of the range 1-255 or in code we > enforce such constraint. > Discussion thread: > http://zookeeper-user.578899.n2.nabble.com/Is-myid-actually-limited-to-1-255-td7581270.html -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
