Subject: Zookeeper service?

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!
