Hi Imesha The best way to demonstrate this is to show you a reference build for OODT..
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/8503756/oodt-example.tgz If you can grab that archive and extract it, you'll see that is how currently OODT is deployed. If you take the file manager as the reference module inside oodt/filemgr you'll see etc/filemgr.properties and policy/oodt/* These are the configuration locations of a single file manager. The problem I want to solve is this: a) If I run > 1 file manager they are completely separate and they don't know of each other. So using Zookeeper will allow multiple file managers to register against ZK and learn of each other. b) Backing them onto ZK will allow file managers to come and go on the fly, providing scaling capabilities or maybe fm's that are designed to be transient. Just for clarity, the ZK configuration will be an optional requirement, so we need to extend the existing configuration mechanism, to support both the current config and the ZK config instead of ZK being mandatory.
