What should I use for zookeeperPrefix value in my sample.properties? #7

Should I use my value /storm , from my Storm cluster's variable storm.zookeeper.root variable?

Or do I just make up a value like "kinesis_spout", which isn't a directory, but seems like just a made up value?

Prefix/path for storing spout state in Zookeeper

zookeeperPrefix = kinesis_spout

Thanks for any replies. Sam Glover Austin, Texas

Hello,

The Amazon Kinesis Storm Spout will store its state (checkpoints) under this prefix. You can use "kinesis_spout" or any other friendly name which will help you identify this directory in Zookeeper. Having a dedicated prefix for the spout can help avoid collisions.

Sincerely, Gaurav
