Sourygna Luangsay commented on CHUKWA-670:
------------------------------------------

Still, I don't really understand what would be the benefit to have a 
centralized Zookeeper configuration system instead of using Puppet or Chef.
Maybe, what you want to do is getting sure that the collector list is always 
"up-to-date" (that is, if a collector node fails, it will be immediately 
removed from the list), so that there would be no HTTP time-out from an agent 
trying to reach an unavailable collector. Is that your idea?

Could you please detail the use-case that gives you the need to implement this 
ZK feature?

> Agent is currently using local disk to storage check point file, and 
> collector list.  This can be hard to manage for large scale system that needs

> in chukwa agent configuration file to enable ZooKeeper as the location to 
> store check point file and collector list.
