Thank Nobert !
It really help me, according to you, what would you recommend? To launch with "Type=simple" and zkServer.sh start ? Or "Type=forking" and zkServer.sh start ? Because start command launch Zookeeper as a Daemon, but if I use "Type=simple" the system already daemonize the process ... Do you think that can be daemonize a daemon ... ? Strange I really ready to use "Type=forking" option but, according to this following post https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=191669 the "Type=forking" is not really recommended ... what do you think ?

Good for debugging (thats what I use it for), or check something, as you will have the logs printed to standard output (console most probably). The "start" is what you want to use in production environment. the process will run in the background. ' What is "After=network.target" ? ' - ZooKeeper should only start after the network... available? I think this should be something like After=network-online.target But looking at the others, I'm not entirely sure either what they really do. But checko out this jira - https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ZOOKEEPER-2095 There was a patch about this, and they added systemd startup/conf files. Sorry, this is all I could come up with, as I'm not familiar with this part either. Hope it helps.
