Saswati updated ZOOKEEPER-3909:
-------------------------------
    Description: 
When we restart a zookeeper, it doesn't successfully join the cluster and start 
serving clients. We see the zookeeper services starts successfully, but it 
stays ideal and throws the message: "This ZooKeeper instance is not currently 
serving requests"

The Zookeeper cluster size is 5. Whenever we feel the need of restarting the 
zookeepers, we do one at a time. There are two ways we restart the zookeepers,
 # just stop the services and start it back up again.
 # stop the services, replace the host, and start it back up again.

And, in both the cases we see the same issue.

-----------

When investigated the zookeepers logs, we see the below errors/warnings,

"[QuorumPeer[myid=1](plain=x.x.x.x:0000)(secure=disabled)] WARN  
org.apache.zookeeper.server.quorum.Learner - Exception when following the leader
 [java.io|http://java.io/].IOException: Leaders epoch, xx is less than accepted 
epoch, xy"

-------------------------

But, when we check the current epoch of the leader is always same as the 
accepted epoch, which is also matches of the zookeeper we are trying to bring 
back to the quorum.

------------------------

Also, when we get the Zxid of every quorum member, they have the same first 
byte; only the last two numbers change, so we can safely assume that they are 
in sync, I guess.

Somehow this zookeeper that we re restarting sees an advancing of the epoch and 
shuts down as a follower.

--------------

The current solution we have at the moment for this issue is,

stop the zookeeper services --> rename the current zookeeper data directory 
(version-2) --> start it backup again.

It immediately joins the cluster as a follower as it doesn't have any idea of 
the epoch and start serving clients.
