>                 Key: KUDU-2146
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KUDU-2146
>             Project: Kudu
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: master
>            Reporter: Andrew Wong
>            Priority: Major
>
> Going through some docs regarding multi-master migration, it seems like some 
> processes are warned against in order to prevent data loss.
> As an example, adding masters to an existing multi-master deployment may mess 
> up the deployment and lose ops if new masters are added using a stale 
> follower as its "reference" master (i.e. the existing master from which data 
> is copied to the new master). As such, the docs warn against doing this 
> migration entirely, when it _should_ be safe to add the new masters using the 
> most up-to-date master as the reference master.
> It would thus be helpful to be able to determine which master is leader, or 
> at least has the highest op-id (finding the leader may be harder to figure 
> out if the masters are down).
