Abmar Barros updated ZOOKEEPER-702:
-----------------------------------

    Attachment: ZOOKEEPER-702.patch

Thanks for the feedback Flavio, I have fixed the issue you mentioned. Only the 
new quorum hammer tests were not working propertly, they were creating the 
default failure detector in all the test cases. This patch addresses this issue.

> Failure Detector Module
> Possible Mentor
> Henry Robinson (henry at apache dot org)
> Requirements
> Java, some distributed systems knowledge, comfort implementing distributed 
> systems protocols
> Description
> ZooKeeper servers detects the failure of other servers and clients by 
> counting the number of 'ticks' for which it doesn't get a heartbeat from 
> other machines. This is the 'timeout' method of failure detection and works 
> very well; however it is possible that it is too aggressive and not easily 
> tuned for some more unusual ZooKeeper installations (such as in a wide-area 
> network, or even in a mobile ad-hoc network).
> This project would abstract the notion of failure detection to a dedicated 
> Java module, and implement several failure detectors to compare and contrast 
> their appropriateness for ZooKeeper. For example, Apache Cassandra uses a 
> phi-accrual failure detector (http://ddsg.jaist.ac.jp/pub/HDY+04.pdf) which 
> is much more tunable and has some very interesting properties. This is a 
> great project if you are interested in distributed algorithms, or want to 
> help re-factor some of ZooKeeper's internal code.
