As far as I remember, cluster configurations files are saved in an internal region as well, and that region is defined as replicate_persistent, so the content of it gets written to the disk as well in those ConfigDistDir backup files. This is something we need to clean up as well. Just use one way of saving the content, either in file system or internal region. I would prefer internal region since it will do data propagation and persistence for us for free, but we still need to have a place to save the jars as well.
