Jeremy Hanna commented on CASSANDRA-3056:
-----------------------------------------
For what we're doing (David and I), it would likely be fine to default it to
the log directory. We've already put the log directory on a large volume
because already heap dumps get put there (in the case of OOM exceptions).
Having it flexible and easy to change would probably be a nice side-effect too,
in case people want to have it be in a completely separate location.
> Able to set path location of HeapDump in cassandra-env

> Key: CASSANDRA-3056
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-3056
> Project: Cassandra
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Affects Versions: 0.7.8, 0.8.4
> Reporter: David Talbott
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: lhf
>
> We should be able to designate the path location to put any perf dumps that
> are performed. By Default with this not set the perf dump can occur on the
> root disk and fill the drive.
> Should be able to solve this by simply inserting JVM_OPTS="$JVM_OPTS
> -XX:HeapDumpPath=<path to dir>" into cassandra-env.sh as a default option
> available and set.
