--------------------------------------------

The issue seems similar but actually it is not. Scenarios are completely different.

> This issue occurred in one of our test environment where disk was being changed to read only very frequently.
> The the scenario is as follows:
> # Configure three node ZooKeeper cluster, lets say nodes are A, B and C
> # Start A and B. Both A and B start successfully, quorum is running.
> # Start C, because of IO error C fails to update acceptedEpoch file. But C also starts successfully, joins the quorum as follower
> # Stop C
> # Start C, bellow exception with message "The accepted epoch, 0 is less than the current epoch, 1" is thrown
> {code}
