I have a working Zookeeper ensemble running with 3 instances and also a solrcloud cluster with some solr instances. I've created a collection with settings to 2 shards. Then i:
create 1 core on instance1 create 1 core on instance2 create 1 core on instance1 create 1 core on instance2 Just to have this configuration: instance1: shard1_leader, shard2_replica instance2: shard1_replica, shard2_leader If i add 2 cores to instance1 then 2 cores to instance2, both leaders will be on instance1 and no re-election is done. instance1: shard1_leader, shard2_leader instance2: shard1_replica, shard2_replica Back to my ideal scenario (detached leaders), also when i add a third instance with 2 replicas and kill one of my instances running a leader, the election picks the instance that already have a leader. My question is why Zookeeper takes this behavior. Shouldn't it distribute leaders? If i deliver some stress to a double-leader instance, is Zookeeper going to run an election? -- View this message in context: http://lucene.472066.n3.nabble.com/Leader-Election-when-tp4077381.html Sent from the Solr - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
