How to find owner of special lock in Zookeeper which decides Active Name node

[#1]

Hi,

I am trying to figure out if by any means can I get the owner of the special ephemeral znode created in Zookeeper.

I see below in my server

[zk: localhost:2181(CONNECTED) 8] ls / [registry, hiveserver2, zookeeper, templeton-hadoop, hadoop-ha, rmstore]

[zk: localhost:2181(CONNECTED) 9] get /hadoop-ha

cZxid = 0x300000003 ctime = Sun Mar 26 09:56:02 PDT 2017 mZxid = 0x300000003 mtime = Sun Mar 26 09:56:02 PDT 2017 pZxid = 0x300000004 cversion = 1 dataVersion = 0 aclVersion = 0 ephemeralOwner = 0x0 dataLength = 0 numChildren = 1 [zk: localhost:2181(CONNECTED) 10]

How can I figure out which node or process or user owns the znode hadoop-ha???

There doesn't seem to be an easy way to find the owner of ephemeral nodes in Zookeeper. You could still take a look at this link, it seems useful. http://zookeeper-user.578899.n2.nabble.com/Identify-ephemeral-node-owner-td6221016.html

I also an open issue related to this, but no progress on it for years.
