Michael Han commented on ZOOKEEPER-3471:
----------------------------------------

Thanks [~lvfangmin] for getting back on this. Your reply explained well on the 
race condition. My initial understanding after reading problem description was 
that this was a quorum level problem (where my confusions came from) but it 
actually is a local (learner specific) problem, which now makes sense to me.

> Potential lock unavailable due to dangling ephemeral nodes left during local 
> session upgrading

> There is a race condition which might be triggered if the client create 
> session, upgrading the session with ephemeral node, then immediately issued 
> close session request before it's removed from local session tracker.
>  
> The close session request will be treated as a local session close request 
> since it still exists in the local session tracker, which goes through the ZK 
> pipeline and delete the session from both local and global session tracker. 
> Since the session is not tracked anymore, it will leave the ephemeral nodes 
> there.
