Stu Hood commented on ZOOKEEPER-29:
-----------------------------------
Two comments:
----
This ticket seems to overlap with ZOOKEEPER-368 to some degree: wouldn't an
Observer simply be a server in the quorum that wouldn't get to vote on proposed
values?

I find mixing this quorum representation with the current configuration a
little messy, especially because it is an optional feature and it does
correspond to a simple value loaded from a file. We need some logic to perform
quorum verification aside from values that we load from a separate
configuration file.
{quote}
It could probably correspond to a key loaded from a flat file, if the key was
hierarchial. It would require a bit of a config overhaul: rather than
{code}
server.1=ahost:2181:2888
{code}
.. you'd want
{code}
server.1.hostname=ahost
server.1.port=2181
server.1.otherport=2888
server.1.weight=3
{code}
...so then weight is optional, which defaults to an equal weight for all
servers.
