All 3 nodes are running embedded ZooKeeper. And, the Admin Guide states "ZooKeeper requires a majority of nodes be active in order to function". So, I assumed 2/3 being active was ok. Perhaps not.
Related: can a Cluster be setup with only 1 ZooKeeper node? Clearly, in production, one would not want to do this. But when testing, this should be acceptable, yes?
