ZK lets any node to become an observer
--------------------------------------

                 Key: ZOOKEEPER-851
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-851
             Project: Zookeeper
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Vishal K
             Fix For: 3.3.1


I had a 3 node cluster running. The zoo.cfg on each contained 3 entries as show 
below:

tickTime=2000
dataDir=/var/zookeeper
clientPort=2181
initLimit=5
syncLimit=2
server.0=10.150.27.61:2888:3888
server.1=10.150.27.62:2888:3888
server.2=10.150.27.63:2888:3888

I wanted to add another node to the cluster. In fourth node's zoo.cfg, I 
created another entry for that node and started zk server. The zoo.cfg on the 
first 3 nodes was left unchanged. The fourth node was able to join the cluster 
even though the 3 nodes had no idea about the fourth node.

zoo.cfg on fourth node:
tickTime=2000
dataDir=/var/zookeeper
clientPort=2181
initLimit=5
syncLimit=2
server.0=10.150.27.61:2888:3888
server.1=10.150.27.62:2888:3888
server.2=10.150.27.63:2888:3888
server.3=10.17.117.71:2888:3888

It looks like 10.17.117.71 is becoming an observer in this case. I was 
expecting that the leader will reject 10.17.117.71.
