   I believe the random behavior that you are referring to only happens when 
the client is executing a method from the 
[ClientService](https://github.com/apache/accumulo/blob/3.1/core/src/main/thrift-gen-java/org/apache/accumulo/core/clientImpl/thrift/ClientService.java)
 or the 
[TabletServerClientService](https://github.com/apache/accumulo/blob/main/core/src/main/thrift-gen-java/org/apache/accumulo/core/tabletserver/thrift/TabletServerClientService.java).
   
   The random connection logic is located 
[here](https://github.com/apache/accumulo/blob/3.1/core/src/main/java/org/apache/accumulo/core/rpc/clients/TServerClient.java#L60).
 Looking at the methods on the 
[TabletServerClientService$Iface](https://github.com/apache/accumulo/blob/main/core/src/main/thrift-gen-java/org/apache/accumulo/core/tabletserver/thrift/TabletServerClientService.java#L30),
 I think we should support specifying a specific server name for the 
ClientService only.
