Flavio Junqueira reassigned ZOOKEEPER-2076: ------------------------------------------- Assignee: Atri Sharma > Improve Leader Change Mechanism > ------------------------------- > > Key: ZOOKEEPER-2076 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-2076 > Project: ZooKeeper > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: server > Affects Versions: 3.5.0 > Reporter: Alexander Shraer > Assignee: Atri Sharma > > When a leader is removed during a reconfiguration, ZOOKEEPER-107 uses a > mechanism where the old leader nominates the new one. Although it reduces the > time for a new leader to be elected, it still takes too long. This JIRA is > for two things: > 1. Improve the mechanism, e.g., avoid loading snapshots, etc. during the > handoff. > 2. Make it a first-class citizen & export it as a client API. We get > questions about this once in a while - how do I cause a different leader to > be elected ? Currently the response is either kill or reconfigure the current > leader. > Any one interested to work on this ? -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.15#6346)
