[TEST] disable indexing while relocating
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
There is a bug (document loss) with this which should be fixed by
#15900
but it will not be backported so we should not test this.

// sometimes index while relocating
if (randomBoolean()) {

/*
There is a rarely occurring bug which causes documents to be lost as follows:
We fail to send index requests to a replica when primary and replica relocate shortly after each other and a replica request is in
flight for a long time.
One shard with primary and one replica.
We index a document while the primary is relocating. This actually works ok on the old primary. The request to the new replica is
sent as a replication request.
We send two replication requests (to relocation target of primary and replica) but they are in flight for a while (threadpool full,
network slow etc).
In the meanwhile:
- relocation of primary is done
- replica is relocated after primary relocation is done
The two replication requests (relocation target of primary and replica) reach their respective targets *after* the relocation of
the primary is done and the relocation of the replica is done.
This means:
- the node that had the replica will not index the document because it does not have the replica anymore
- the node that has the new primary will index the document but not replicate it because it comes in as a replica request
- the new replica will not get the the document via recovery (translog etc) because recovery is done already
--> replica does not get the document at all
This should be fixed by https://github.com/elastic/elasticsearch/pull/15900 but the fix will not be backported so we should not
test this scenario anymore either on 2.x branches. Therfore the indexing while relocation happens is commented out.
