I have read a few things that say things go read only when the zookeeper ensemble loses quorum. I'm not sure whether that means that Solr goes read only or zookeeper goes read only. I would be interested in knowing exactly what happens when zookeeper loses quorum as well as what happens if all three (or more) zookeeper nodes in the ensemble go away entirely. I have a SolrCloud I can experiment with, but I need to find a maintenance window for testing, so I can't check right now. Thanks, Shawn
