According to comments from Mark this (having two functioning sides) is not possible... only one side _can_ continue functioning (taking in updates). Depending on how the shards are deployed over the nodes a "side" may still not accept updates (even if that side has a working zk setup). > Now imagine if the client sending documents for indexing happened to be > sending documents to 2 nodes, say in round-robin fashion. In my understanding all updates are routed through a shard leader. -- Sami Siren
