When you create a collection, you specify a "configset" via the collection.configName parameter _or_ it's the same name as your collection and already uploaded _or_ it's the only configset up in ZK.
Anyway, thereafter whenever a node starts up it downloads the configs from ZK. If the config directory was resident on the individual nodes, it'd be difficult to keep them all in sync. So the basic pattern is 1> you have some source of config files, often kept in a version control system or as Edwin says located in the distro. 2> you make whatever modifications you want 3> you push the configs up to Zookeeper with the zkCli tool 4> you use the configs (reload the collection using them, create a new collection, whatever) Repeat <2> and <3> whenever you need to change your configs.
