Hi Ben
Well, im just wondering why the server's own unique IP-address isn't
good enough as a valid identifyer; it strikes me to be a bit
exhausting to manually set the id for each server in the cluster. Or
maybe there is some details im not getting here :-)
Regards, Orjan

the myid file just has the unique identifier (number) of the server in the
cluster. that number is matched against the id in the configuration file.
there isn't much to say about it:

Hi!
Can someone pin-point me to a site (or please explain ) where I can
read about the use of the myid-file for configuring the id of the
ZooKeeper servers?
I'm sure there is a good reason for using this approach, but it is the
first time I have come over this type of non-automatic way for
administrating replicas.
