Keith Turner commented on ACCUMULO-1229: ---------------------------------------- Would there ever be a need for ZooKeeperInstance to only connect to the zookeepers the user passed (and no others)? I can not think of a use case at the moment. Want to avoid the situation where we cause problems for users when we were just trying to help them. Another option to consider is not changing ZooKeeperInstance at all and providing utility methods for obtaining a complete list of zookeeper servers from Accumulo. A problem with this option is that it does not work with existing user code. If ZookeeperInstance itself is changed then existing code could benefit. > ZooKeeperInstance.getZookeepers() should return all zookeepers, not just what > was given to the constructor > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: ACCUMULO-1229 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-1229 > Project: Accumulo > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: client > Reporter: John Vines > Priority: Minor > > Currently the suggested Instance is ZooKeeperInstance, which requires an > instance name and all zookeepers the client should use to be specified. The > client could reference just one or not necessarily all of them.
