    Description

      Build: 7.1.0-1833

      Following unable to auto_failover node(s) logs is missing in logs.

      Unable to Automatically Fail Over Node Which node is required auto failover
      Why did automatic failover not succeed
      Which node was the orchestrator at the time
      The automatic failover threshold

      Steps:

      • 5 node cluster, bucket with replica=1
      • Bring down all query nodes or bring down 2 KV nodes at a same time

      Observation:

      Able to see the log in UI saying,

       

      Could not auto-failover node ('ns_1@172.23.105.211'). Number of remaining nodes that are running data service is 1. You need at least 2 nodes.

      Expectation:

       

      Respective event should be logged in system_event_logs

          Ashwin Govindarajulu: There are two category of not being able to auto-failover.

          1) when an auto-failover was started but was aborted/not-completed due to a specific reason - we log events in this case. 

          2) warnings where the auto-failover is not even attempted/run at all due to some reason - we don't log events for this case.

          Given the terming used in the PRD "why did autofailover not succeed" and "which node was orchestrator" which seems to be only applicable to case 1 only those were logged.
