Quan Shi commented on FLINK-10052:
----------------------------------
Hi, all.
What if the Job Manager works fine except losing connection with zookeeper? The
stream job can continue running. Do we really need to select another active Job
Manager and restart the whole job?
> Tolerate temporarily suspended ZooKeeper connections

> This issue results from FLINK-10011 which uncovered a problem with Flink's HA
> recovery and proposed the following solution to harden Flink:
> The {{ZooKeeperLeaderElectionService}} uses the {{LeaderLatch}} Curator
> recipe for leader election. The leader latch revokes leadership in case of a
> suspended ZooKeeper connection. This can be premature in case that the system
> can reconnect to ZooKeeper before its session expires. The effect of the lost
> leadership is that all jobs will be canceled and directly restarted after
> regaining the leadership.
> Instead of directly revoking the leadership upon a SUSPENDED ZooKeeper
> connection, it would be better to wait until the ZooKeeper connection is
> LOST. That way we would allow the system to reconnect and not lose the
> leadership. This could be achievable by using Curator's {{LeaderSelector}}
> instead of the {{LeaderLatch}}.
