Eric Pugh resolved SOLR-7074.
-----------------------------
Resolution: Workaround
> Simple script to start external Zookeeper
> -----------------------------------------
>
> Key: SOLR-7074
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-7074
> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: SolrCloud
> Reporter: Upayavira
> Priority: Major
>
> When starting Zookeeper for SolrCloud, we have two choices, bin/solr -c
> (without -z) and run Zookeeper embedded. Whilst this works, it is suggestive
> of bad practice, something you will have to unlearn later.
> The second option is to download Zookeeper, and install it manually. This
> isn't hugely hard, but it is quite manual. However, try it on Windows, and
> you'll find the Windows start script for Zookeeper is extremely thin (no
> start/stop options, etc).
> Solr contains everything needed to start Zookeeper. Why not have a bin/zk
> script that can start it for us. Thus, first time user instructions for
> ZolrCloud could be:
> bin/zk start
> bin/zk uploadconf examples/techproducts/conf
> bin/solr start -c -Z
> -Z here hypothetically says "look in the standard place, localhost:2181, for
> Zookeeper".
> or even:
> bin/zk start -config=examples/techproducts/conf
> bin/ssolr start -Z
> This should support both Windows and Unix.
> bin/zk would support all the functionality of the current zkCli scripts as
> well as being able to start/stop zookeeper.
> This would make initial experience of using Solr a lot simpler, in my view,
> which would be a good thing.
> Not only that, deploying Zookeeper in production, for Solr, need only be push
> a Solr app dir to the server, then run bin/zk start, reducing the complexity
> of installation.
> Thoughts? If this seems like a good idea, and don't share valid objections,
> I'm prepared to make it happen.
