HI Mark,
 ZooKeeper does not create the myid file in the data directory.

Looking at the config file it looks like it is missing the quorum
configuration for other servers.

Please take alook at

http://hadoop.apache.org/zookeeper/docs/r3.2.1/zookeeperAdmin.html#sc_zkMuli
tServerSetup


You will need to add config options for other servers in the quorum in the
config file.


Thanks
mahadev
