             Summary: Hue status on SuSE doesn't work when run from outside of 
/usr/bin
                 Key: BIGTOP-836
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-836
             Project: Bigtop
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Mark Grover
            Assignee: Mark Grover


BIGTOP-829 added a "-L" flag in the status check for hue on SuSE 11. The flag 
was used to specify python as an argument instead of something like python2.7.

However, that flag (to follow symlinks) doesn't quite work unless you are 
running the command from /usr/bin/ where there is a symlink called python 
pointing to python2.6. Moreover, it may lead to incorrect results if 
/usr/bin/python was not the python being used.

Consequently, a better approach is needed. An idea is to parse the output of ps 
for the pid in question, ensure it's hue related and report the status. The 
benefit is that it's a clean process with no dependency on pidofproc or 
figuring out what version of python is being used.
