>             Project: ZooKeeper
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: c client
>    Affects Versions: 3.4.9
>            Reporter: Tharindu Kumara
>
> Recently, carried out a test to to find the behavior of clients when a 
> client is partitioned from the ensemble. 
> Here used a ensemble of 3 zookeeper servers called A, B and C. And quorum was set up like below. 
> A - Follower 
> B - Leader 
> C - Follower​ 
> A  <---> B <---> C 
>    \__________/ 
> And 3 clients are connected to ensemble like below. 
> C1 is connected A 
> C2 is connected B 
> C3 is connected C. 
> To remove the network link between B and C iptables utility is used. 
> command used: 
> iptables -I INPUT -s Server_B_IP -j DROP 
> iptables -I INPUT -s Server_C_IP -j DROP 
> After removing the link connections looks like below. 
> A  <----> B         C 
>    \___________/ 
> Simply there is no way to send any packets from from B to C and vice versa. But the connection exists between between B and C.
> Here What I noticed is that the client connected to Zookeeper Server "C", could not connect to the ensemble resulting a session expiration timeout. 
> For this experiment I used tickTime of 3000ms and client session expiration timeout of 45000ms. And tested with different combinations also.
