Jason, You need to modify the ZooKeeper config and add the following:
dataDir=/tmp/zookeeper initLimit=50 syncLimit=2 server.1=kafka001.domain.com:2888:3888 server.2=kafka002.domain.com:2888:3888 server.3=kafka003.domain.com:2888:3888 # Make sure you open those 2 points on each of the servers for your firewall The .1 after the server is the id of the zookeeper which should be stored in a file Named /tmp/zookeeper/myid Echo "1" > /tmp/zookeeper/myid` Cheers, Eric Sites On 4/23/13 9:50 AM, "Jason Huang" <jason.hu...@icare.com> wrote: >Thanks Chris and Neha. > >Chris - I've been through the link you mentioned before.
