Chris Nauroth commented on ZOOKEEPER-2243:
------------------------------------------
bq. Isn't zk support a prerequisite for hadoop on solaris?
ZooKeeper isn't strictly a requirement for Hadoop. It becomes a requirement
though if you want to run an HA deployment for some of the critical daemons
like NameNode and ResourceManager. Their HA architecture uses an
active/standby pair coordinating on a distributed lock using ZooKeeper.
Realistic production deployments would want this functionality.

> It refers to Solaris as Sun Solaris so it's at least 5 years out of date.
> We should "support" the platforms that we are running zookeeper on regularly,
> so I suggest paring it down to linux and windows (mac os doesn't really count
> because people don't run it on servers anymore). Everything else should be
> "may work, not supported, but will fix obvious bugs".
