create packages that enable accumulo features on the given node
---------------------------------------------------------------
Key: ACCUMULO-210
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-210
Project: Accumulo
Issue Type: Bug
Components: start
Reporter: Eric Newton
Assignee: John Vines
Priority: Blocker
Fix For: 1.5.0
If you use the .rpm or .deb install packages, the base package is installed.
If you try to run accumulo, you find it is not fully configured, and the start
fails. There's no "slaves" file or "masters".... worse, the helpful start
script tries to create single-node versions of these files. The package isn't
very useful until this is done.
We should layer packages to enable a node to run a given feature:
tablet/logger, master, monitor, tracer. Installing the package will pull in
the base package as a dependency and turn on the feature by installing a file
somewhere. The start-here script should then read those features.
I'm sure hadoop or hbase are doing something similar: at least investigate good
practices.
