this is adding lead-follower on acceptors. Having a single acceptor serving the clients from two brokers.

Say both brokers are active, but only one of the acceptors serving the clients should be active between 2 or more brokers.

The data between them could be synchronized through mirroring..

the pattern I'm adding is a lead-manager, using distributed locks (ETCD / JDBC / File / ZK), and have it applied to acceptors.
