             Summary: Dynamic configuration file can not be updated automatically
                 Key: ZOOKEEPER-3556
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-3556
             Project: ZooKeeper
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: java client
    Affects Versions: 3.5.5
            Reporter: Steven Chan


*I encountered a problem which blocks my development of load balance using ZooKeeper 3.5.5.*

   *Actually, I have a ZooKeeper cluster which comprises of five zk servers. And the dynamic configuration file is as follows:*

 ** 

  *server.1=zk1:2888:3888:participant;0.0.0.0:2181*

  *server.2=zk2:2888:3888:participant;0.0.0.0:2181*

  *server.3=zk3:2888:3888:participant;0.0.0.0:2181*

  *server.4=zk4:2888:3888:participant;0.0.0.0:2181*

  *server.5=zk5:2888:3888:participant;0.0.0.0:2181*

 ** 

  *The zk cluster can work fine if every member works normally. However, if say two of them are suddenly down without previously being notified,*

*the dynamic configuration file shown above will not be synchronized dynamically, which leads to the zk cluster fail to work normally.*

  *As far as I am concerned, the dynamic configuration file should be modified to this if server 1 and server 5 are down suddenly as follows:*

  *server.2=zk2:2888:3888:participant;0.0.0.0:2181*

  *server.3=zk3:2888:3888:participant;0.0.0.0:2181*

  *server.4=zk4:2888:3888:participant;0.0.0.0:2181*

*But in this case, the dynamic configuration file will never change automatically unless you manually revise it.*

  *I think this is a very common case which may happen at any time. If so, how can we handle with it?*
