The RegionServer hosting hbase:meta will certainly have "load" placed onto it, commensurate to the size of your cluster and the number of clients you're running. However, this shouldn't be increasing the amount of connections to ZK from a RegionServer.

The RegionServer hosting system.catalog would be unique WRT other Phoenix-table Regions. I don't recall off of the top of my head if there is anything specific in the RegionServer code that runs alongside system.catalog (the MetaDataEndpoint protocol) that reaches out to ZooKeeper.

If you're using HDP 2.6.3, I wouldn't be surprised if you're running into known and fixed issues where ZooKeeper connections are not cleaned up. That's multiple-years old code.

netstat and tcpdump isn't really going to tell you anything you don't already. From a thread dump or a heap dump, you'll be able to see the number of ZooKeeper connections from a RegionServer. The 4LW commands from ZK will be able to tell you which clients (i.e. RegionServers) have the most connections. These numbers should match (X connections from a RS to a ZK, and X connections in the Java RS process). The focus would need to be on what opens a new connection and what is not properly closing that connection (in every case).

Thanks for sharing insights. Moving hbase mailing list to cc.
Sorry, forgot to mention that we are using Phoenix4.7(HDP 2.6.3). This cluster is mostly being queried via Phoenix apart from few pure NoSql cases that uses raw HBase api's.

I looked further into zk logs and found that only 6/15 RS are running into max connection problems(no other ip/hosts of our client apps were found) constantly. One of those RS is getting 3-4x the connections errors as compared to others, this RS is hosting hbase:meta <http://ip-10-74-10-228.us-west-2.compute.internal:16030/region.jsp?name=1588230740>, regions of phoenix secondary indexes and region of Phoenix and HBase tables. I also looked into other 5 RS that are getting max connection errors, for me nothing really stands out since all of them are hosting regions of phoenix secondary indexes and region of Phoenix and HBase tables.

I also tried to run netstat and tcpdump on zk host to find out anomaly but couldn't find anything apart from above mentioned analysis. Also ran hbck and it reported that things are fine. I am still unable to pin point exact problem(maybe something with phoenix secondary index?). Any other pointer to further debug the problem will be appreciated.

Lastly, I constantly see following zk connection loss logs in above mentioned 6 RS: /2020-06-03 06:40:30,859 WARN  [RpcServer.FifoWFPBQ.default.handler=123,queue=3,port=16020-SendThread(ip-10-74-0-120.us-west-2.compute.internal:2181)] zookeeper.ClientCnxn: Session 0x0 for server ip-10-74-0-120.us-west-2.compute.internal/10.74.0.120:2181 <http://10.74.0.120:2181>, unexpected error, closing socket connection and attempting reconnect

    Phoenix is probably the thing you need to look at more closely
    (especially if you're using an old version of Phoenix that matches the
    old HBase 1.1 version). Internally, Phoenix acts like an HBase client
    which results in a new ZK connection. There have certainly been bugs
    like that in the past (speaking generally, not specifically).
