no reliability (a single serving node failure          


        

Answer 1

Basically, Zookeeper will work just fine as long as Active Zookeepers are in MAJORITY compared to failed Zookeepers. Also, in case of even quorum size i.e 2,4,6 etc. Failed = Active, because of that its not recommended.

Both 3 and 4 will handle only 1 faliures then why whould we want to used 4 Zookeepers instead of 3.
