Alexey Serbin updated KUDU-2947:
--------------------------------
Status: In Review (was: Open)
> A replica with slow WAL may grant votes even if established leader is alive
> and well
> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: KUDU-2947
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KUDU-2947
> Project: Kudu
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: consensus, master, tserver
> Reporter: Alexey Serbin
> Assignee: Alexey Serbin
> Priority: Major
>
> In some cases when WAL operations are slow, a follower replica may grant
> {{yes}} votes right after processing recent Raft transactions even if
> currently established leader replica is alive and well. Vote requests might
> come from so called disruptive replicas in the cluster. The disruptive
> replicas might ask for votes of higher Raft term than the current term with
> established and well being leader.
> In some cases that might lead to multiple successive election rounds even if
> there were no actual reason to re-elect leader replicas.
