Description

Currently MAC expects to run it's own zookeeper and do initialization of the instance for the given site.xml. I believe with a few minor changes, it could also be used to point against a live instance. Mainly, this requires using the existing accumulo-site.xml file in lieu of the pseudo-provided/generated one and not starting it's own ZK.
