The ZooKeeper Service

Required Role:

When adding the ZooKeeper service, the Add Service wizard automatically initializes the data directories. If you quit the Add Service wizard or it does not finish successfully, you can initialize the directories outside the wizard by doing these steps:
  1. Go to the ZooKeeper service.
  2. Select Actions > Initialize.
  3. Click Initialize again to confirm.
  Note: If the data directories are not initialized, the ZooKeeper nodes cannot be started.
