Keith Turner commented on ACCUMULO-1229:
----------------------------------------
Option 4 seems like it would result in the following sequence of operations
# 1 zookeeper server is passed in
# Use 1 zookeeper server to find location of master
# Ask master for list of zookeepers
# Use this list to create new zookeepers connection
This seems a bit odd.
Why is making a client list all zookeepers a burden? A client knowing of only
one zookeeper server seems like a less reliable way to use Accumulo. Operating
this way unnecessarily introduces a SPOF.
> ZooKeeperInstance.getZookeepers() should return all zookeepers, not just what

> Project: Accumulo
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: client
> Reporter: John Vines
> Priority: Minor
>
> Currently the suggested Instance is ZooKeeperInstance, which requires an
> instance name and all zookeepers the client should use to be specified. The
> client could reference just one or not necessarily all of them. The API
> should be able to get all of the known zookeepers from the system, so we
> should reduce the burden on the clients for ZooKeeper instance and just have
> them list at least one to get initial contact and then update the Instance
> appropriately.
