> When leader candidate does PeerSync to all replicas, to download any missing updates, it is tolerant to failures. It uses {{cantReachIsSuccess=true}} switch which handles connection issue, 404 and 503 as success, since replicas being DOWN should not affect the process.
> However, if a replica has disk issues, the core initialization might fail and that results in {{500}} instead of {{503}}. I failing replica like that can prevent any other replicas becoming the leader.
> Proposing either:
> * Accepting {{500}} as "cant reach" so leader candidate can go on
> or
> * Changing {{SolrCoreInitializationException}} to return {{503}} instead of {{500}}
> * * this might be API change, however
