Flavio Paiva Junqueira updated ZOOKEEPER-194:
---------------------------------------------
Attachment: ZOOKEEPER-194.patch
I have tried to make the use of the term "quorum" consistent with the way we
use it, and that we find in the literature. I have also replaced some words
like "atomic" and "complete" that may cause confusion in the way they were
used.
> Fix terminology in zookeeperAdmin.xml

> According to the trunk version of zookeeperAdmin.xml, a quorum is a group of
> servers running an instance of the zookeeper service.This terminology is not
> standard. We should use "ensemble" to denote a group of zookeeper servers,
> and "quorum" to denote a minimum subset of the ensemble necessary, for
> example, to commit an operation or to support a leader. In our case, a quorum
> is always a majority of servers of the ensemble.
