Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-1126:
-------------------------------------------

I still feel like this is the Wrong Solution, given that log4j, datacenter 
properties, and snitch properties all still load from classpath.

What about an option for bin/cassandra.in.sh to override CASSANDRA_CONF 
variable?

> Allow loading of cassandra.yaml from a location off the classpath

> As a convenience, predominantly for testing but also for some levels of 
> automated ops, it would be helpful to allow cassandra.yaml to be specified 
> explicitly during startup as opposed to always reading it from the classpath 
> which cannot be altered at runtime (not easily anyway).
> Sample patch attached that reads -D property cassandra.conf and gives it 
> preference over any entry on the classpath.
