We might be going at this wrong, but we've got Solr set up as a service,
so if the machine goes down it'll restart. But without Zookeeper running
as a service, that's not much help. I found the zookeeperd install,
which in theory seems like it should do the trick, but that installs a
new instance of ZK and isn't using our zoo.cfg. I guess we can make the
config adjustments to the new ZK installation and use that, but was
hoping to use our existing ZK installation. Or maybe I can hack the
zookeeper startup script to get it to run as a service?
There's the SOLR_WAIT_FOR_ZK config parameter, so Solr will wait for ZK
to fire up .. seems like it's partially there.
This all seems like too many hoops to jump through to be the "right" way
to go. I assume that others have run into a similar situation?
Thoughts?
Thanks!
