SyncLimit and client notifications

["Paul K. Harter, Jr." <pa...@oracle.com>]

Apologies if this has been discussed previously, but I have a few questions

on the handling of SyncLimit.

 

1)      does a follower keep track of SyncLimit and initiate election if it
has
not heard from the Leader for SyncLimit, or what triggers Leader Election?

2)      can a follower continue to serve "read" requests during Leader
Election,
or does Leader Election pause all client activity??

3)      does a follower give its clients an explicit notification telling
them to find
another server to help ensure that their sessions do not time out??
If so, when?  SyncLimit??

 

Thanks
