----------------------------------

             Summary: Reference documentation should be self-contained
                 Key: AURORA-829
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AURORA-829
             Project: Aurora
          Issue Type: Story
          Components: Documentation
            Reporter: Stephan Erb


As a user of Aurora, I would like the documentation to be more self-contained 
and usecase-focused. In its current form, I have to jump back and forth between 
_configuration-reference.md_, _user-guide.md_,  and _configuration-tutorial.md_ 
in order to grasp a feature.


*An Example:* Health Checks
* _configuration-reference.md:_ 
** Describes how to configure health checks. 
** Does not tell me what endpoint is monitored
** States that a 'health port' has to be assigned via a 'command line wildcard' 
but does not explain what that is supposed to mean.
* _configuration-tutorial.md:_ 
** Repeats information from the configuration-reference without providing any 
additional insights.
* _use-guide.md_:
** Lists the _/health_ endpoint but omits information on what is supposed to be 
returned.
** Has only an incomplete example of how to assign a health port (example uses 
http port)

As a first step, we could simplify the _configuration-tutorial.md_ by moving 
all non-essential property descriptions to the _configuration-tutorial.md_ 
(e.g., max_failures, finalization_wait, update_config...)
