Hi, *Problem:* We are running a Zookeeper ensemble that takes a bit too long time before a new master is elected when the old one is brought down.
*Question:* Which configuration settings do I need to change to decrease the time before a reelection occurs? tickTime and syncLimit? *Additionals:* The relevant (I think!) configuration we are running is: # The number of milliseconds of each tick tickTime=2000 # The number of ticks that the initial # synchronization phase can take initLimit=60 # The number of ticks that can pass between # sending a request and getting an acknowledgement syncLimit=30 I have previously increases the limits somewhat to accomodate for zookeeper nodes not being able to come up due to too large snapshot. This could definitely be the reason why reelection takes longer time. Any input appreciated.
