> During SCM-HA, SCM not only needs to know whether it is a leader, but also needs to know which term it is in charge of.
>  
> Assume such a case: underlying raft node was leader on term 1, then step down as follower on term 2, then init election and become leader again on term 3. If term is not exposed together with leader information, SCM can not distinguish a leader of term 1 from that of term 3.
