I really don't recommend doing this. Really, the cluster shouldn't be
changing often enough where the ensemble status is changing all that
often. You can do this by exploiting internal APIs that are accessible
over distributed Erlang in riak_ensemble. Though, connecting to the
cluster over distributed Erlang from your client is probably also less
than recommended because it adds extra complexity, and you're poking
at internal APIs that aren't meant to be exposed to the client.

If you want to know for your own sake, you can look at the output from
'riak-admin ensemble-status'

In order to do this programmatically, you'd want to hook into
riak_ensemble_manager, and interrogate it for the status of the
ensembles. I would start by looking at the code in
riak_kv/riak_kv_ensemble_console.erl to go down this route.
