Description

Shell fails to find instance id at /accumulo/instance_id when just the name service roots are configured in viewfs. Fails at ZooUtil.getInstanceIDFromHDFS(line 63). I'm thinking the code should prepend one of the instance.volumes.

Workaround is to explicitly map /accumulo/instance_id in viewfs to one of the locations.
