Storage paths exposed in JMX should be absolute/canonical
---------------------------------------------------------
Key: CASSANDRA-3504
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-3504
Project: Cassandra
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Core
Affects Versions: 1.0.2
Reporter: Tyler Hobbs
Priority: Trivial
The data, commitlog, and saved caches directories are exposed through JMX.
However, what's exposed is just exactly what's in the config file. This can be
ambiguous in some cases. For example, on Windows, if your conf entry is
"/var/log/cassandra/data", JMX will expose the String
"/var/log/cassandra/data", but the actual directory used might be
"C:\var\log\cassandra\data" or "D:\var\log\cassandra\data" -- there's no way to
determine what drive letter is actually being used.
Reporting the result of File.getCanonicalPath(filename) instead would eliminate
the ambiguity.
