ASF GitHub Bot commented on OODT-945: ------------------------------------- Github user chrismattmann commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/oodt/pull/44 So I checked, and I do have those environment variables set, except for ```RESMGR_HOME``` e.g., ``` LMC-053601:oodt mattmann$ echo $FILEMGR_HOME /usr/local/bigtranslate/filemgr LMC-053601:oodt mattmann$ echo $FILEMGR_URL http://localhost:9000 LMC-053601:oodt mattmann$ LMC-053601:oodt mattmann$ echo $RESMGR_URL http://localhost:9002 LMC-053601:oodt mattmann$ ``` I was thinking about your code - is it that if an environment variable from local config isn't that set - you are publishing a null value to ZK or there is a getPropertyOrNull call somewhere that is causing this? If so, we should probably have a sensibleDefaults() configuration which are all the sensible defaults in case the environment is Null. Even better would be to use PathUtils in o.a.cas.metadata.util to do EnvVarOrMetadata replacement on all paths you read from config. > Rework OODT configuration to make use of Zookeeper for distributed > configuration management > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: OODT-945 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OODT-945 > Project: OODT > Issue Type: Bug > Reporter: Tom Barber > Assignee: Tom Barber > Labels: gsoc2017, mentor > > OODT is made up of a number of different components, each of which have their > own set of configuration files and locations. This is complex to manage and > causes additional problems when the platform requires distribution across > servers or geographically. > To combat this we are proposing that we migrate the OODT configuration to an > opional Zookeeper module that would allow users to commission a zookeeper > cluster and register the various OODT components against it, which will allow > the zookeeper cluster to maintain the state of the various OODT components > regardless of scale. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.14#64029)
