To check if Zookeeper is accessible  One method is to simply telnet to the proper port and execute the stats command       root host    telnet localhost 2181 Trying 127 0 0 1    Connected to myhost  Escape character is       stats Zookeeper version  3 4 3-cdh4 0 1--1  built on 06 28 2012 23 59 GMT Clients   Latency min avg max  0 0 677 Received  4684478 Sent  4687034 Outstanding  0 Zxid  0xb00187dd0 Mode  leader Node count  127182 Connection closed by foreign host

I use      jps   Depending on your installation a running Zookeeper would look like     HQuorumPeer   or sth  with zookeeper in it s name

echo stat   nc localhost 2181   grep Mode echo srvr   nc localhost 2181   grep Mode   From 3 3 0 onwards    Above will work in whichever modes Zookeeper is running  standalone or embedded    Another way  If zookeeper is running in standalone mode  its a JVM process  so -   jps   grep Quorum   will display list of jvm processes  something like this for zookeeper with process ID  HQuorumPeer

One other way would be to use 4 letter commands to validate if zookeeper service is healthy or not  echo stat   nc  lt zookeeper ip gt  2181 echo mntr   nc  lt zookeeper ip gt  2181 echo isro    nc  lt zookeeper ip gt  2181   More details on the documentation link below https   zookeeper apache org doc r3 1 2 zookeeperAdmin html sc zkCommands

Zookeeper is just a Java process and when you start a Zookeeper instance it runs a org apache zookeeper server quorum QuorumPeerMain class  So you can check for a running Zookeeper like this   jps -l   grep zookeeper   or even like this   jps   grep Quorum   upd   regarding this  will hostname be the hostname of my box   - the answer is yes
