Review comment:
       Nit, just about style :) To reduce the duplicate code, I would do 
something like this
   ```
   String failureReason = _zkClient.exists(instancePath) ? 
ResetPartitionFailureReason.INSTANCE_NONEXISTENT) :  
ResetPartitionFailureReason.INSTANCE_NOTALIVE);
   throw new HelixException(...);
   ```
