      Description

      It appears that old configurations are still persisting in ZK when it comes to adding new indexers. I discovered this after creating this bad setting in hbase-indexer-site.xml:

      <property>
         <name>hbase.zookeeper.quorum</name>
         <value>search-testing-3rdparty-1.ent.cloudera.com:2181</value>
      </property> 
      

      (the port number should not be specified)

      and then running hbase add-indexer -n hbaseIndexer ... which still resulted in a successfully created and active indexer called "hbaseIndexer" that wouldn't properly index data.

      Deleting the indexer using hbase-indexer delete-indexer -n hbaseIndexer and restarting the indexer service with the proper hbase-indexer-site settings doesn't fix it; if you try to create the "hbaseIndexer" indexer again, it'll still use those old bad zookeeper quorum settings and generate a broken indexer.

      The workaround I used was to delete the entire /ngdata tree from ZooKeeper and begin fresh with all the proper configurations.
