Description

We don't have any utilities to rename an Accumulo instance, which means that users would have to go into ZooKeeper and manually change it to do so. This is error prone (and probably scary for someone not familiar with ZK), so we should provide a script that does this for them.

It only requires moving /accumulo/instances/$old_instance_name to /accumulo/instances/$new_instance_name (preserving the contents of the znode).
