Sean Mackrory commented on BIGTOP-1096:
---------------------------------------

Personally I don't find it confusing because it will look under whatever the 
current oozie config directory is. So 
/etc/oozie/conf.mycluster/tomcat-deployment would be used in this case. I 
wouldn't be opposed to, say, making it a peer directory, if you think that 
would be less confusing. So for all the components, tomcat configuration would 
be copied from /etc/<component>/tomcat_deployment, and in Oozie's case that 
would an alternatives symlink just like /etc/<component>/conf. If people seem 
to find that more robust, I'll go ahead and implement / test that.

> I see that Oozie (at least) today creates a second level alternatives managed 
> subdir (tomcat conf) under something that is already managed by an 
> alternatives mechanism (oozie conf). This looks like it could be a problem if 
> the user switches the top level one (oozie conf).
