In this case all of the _other_ zookeeper clients will see the client
session is closed (actually they see any ephemeral znodes that the
client created are removed, which is typically what you do for group
membership - create an ephemeral znode that represents your client, a
member of the cluster) and can act appropriately.
Your client will see a disconnected event:
http://hadoop.apache.org/zookeeper/docs/current/zookeeperProgrammers.html#ch_zkSessions
Given what Mahadev mentioned (you don't know if you are expired until
you reconnect) what you do now in the disco client is up to your use
case. If it's just group membership then it's probably fine, your client
will be disconnected, perhaps expired. It won't know, but the rest of
the cluster (incl any monitoring app) will know and can act
appropriately. The disconnected client needs to decide what to do
(perhaps, or perhaps it doesn't do anything, it's just that the other
members of the cluster no longer consider it active, and therefore don't
involve it in processing)
