One norm we set in Fluo is expecting the user to add a path to the zookeeper connection string. For example a connection string like the following :
zserver1:1234,zserver2:1234,zserver3:1234/foo9 Would chroot the zookeeper connection to /foo9. So if you listed children a / using that connection, it would actually list children of /foo9. I wonder if these types of connection strings would work with Accumulo? If not it may be worthwhile to fix the issues that prevent it from working. Then you could use this zookeeper feature to accomplish your use case.
