Configure Multiple OpenTSDB to use single HBase backend

Question

I have to configure multiple openTSDB to put data into a sinfle HBase. Out of all TSD, one would be running local to Hbase and others would be remote. For which I tried running TSD with the extra argument of --zkquorum=xxx:xxx:xxx:xxx:YY, though it was able to connect but gave some exception inside. Can someone please tell me what all I have to configure to run multiple TSD to use single Hbase.

If you followed the instructions at http://opentsdb.net/setup-hbase.html to setup a single-node cluster, you'd need to remove the properties hbase.zookeeper.dns.interface and hbase.regionserver.dns.interface and hbase.master.dns.interface so that HBase and ZooKeeper don't bind to localhost.
