Sean Mackrory updated BIGTOP-939:
---------------------------------

    Attachment: 0001-BIGTOP-939.-Make-usage-of-bigtop-tomcat-more-dynamic.patch

Attaching a proof-of-concept patch. I've installed both RPMs and DEBs, and the 
configuration files are in /etc (the webapps directory which contains the WAR 
and some other configuration files is still in /usr/lib), and are copied to 
/var/lib at run-time. I still need to test a few specific features this is 
meant to help support, but just attaching now in case there's any early 
feedback.

> Projects like Oozie and Sqoop present some configuration challenges compared 
> to other components because they use Tomcat. Sometimes small tweaks to the 
> configuration or classpath have to be done in a very component-specific way 
> as opposed to tweaking files in /etc/<comp>/conf or /etc/default. In one 
> case, we even have redundant Tomcat deployments for common configurations 
> (Oozie's SSL vs.  non-SSL).
> If the environment for Tomcat was generated more dynamically, we could avoid 
> this redundancy and could allow common features to be configured in more 
> "standard" ways.
