Dremio starts Zookeeper server unless one specifies external Zookeeper server to use.
Saying that - do you have Zookeeper server running on the same node (it uses port 2181 by default) or any other process running on port 2181?

Thanks. That was the issue. Zookeeper from Drill was running.

Hi,

how one can point dremio to use external zookeeper? I did not find any option in /etc/dremio/dremo.conf file

You can check the reference for dremio.conf configuration file at https://docs.dremio.com/advanced-administration/configuration-files.html#dremio-configuration-file

There are two settings of interest in your case:

  • zookeeper which points to the zookeeper quorum to use for coordination
  • services.coordinator.embedded_master_zk.enabled which turns on/off the embedded zookeeper server (running by default on port 2181)

I think @laurent replied already
Let me know if you need more info
