Benjamin Reed commented on ZOOKEEPER-107: ----------------------------------------- i think if we use the notion of observers it helps: an observer can sync with a leader, but it doesn't get to vote. i think this makes it easy because the leader can then determine that it can commit with both the active followers and active observers if needed: for example start with A, B, C and move to A, B, D, E, F. if A and C are active followers and E and F are observers then the leader will propose the new configuration. > Allow dynamic changes to server cluster membership > -------------------------------------------------- > > Key: ZOOKEEPER-107 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-107 > Project: Zookeeper > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: server > Reporter: Patrick Hunt > Assignee: Henry Robinson > Attachments: SimpleAddition.rtf > > > Currently cluster membership is statically defined, adding/removing hosts > to/from the server cluster dynamically needs to be supported. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
