-ZooKeeper is a centralized service for maintaining configuration information,

-All of these kinds of services are used in some form or another by distributed

-difficulty of implementing these kinds of services, applications initially 
-usually skimp on them ,which make them brittle in the presence of change and

 The recommended UID/GID is 322. You can create these like so:
 
 groupadd -g 322 zookeeper
-useradd -u 322 -g 322 -c "Zookeeper user" -d /var/lib/zookeeper -s /bin/sh zookeeper
+useradd -u 322 -g 322 -c "Zookeeper user" \
+        -d /var/lib/zookeeper -s /bin/sh zookeeper
