----------------------------------
Summary: Cluster config: unnecessary & misleading warning when
cluster config not in use
Key: GEODE-3069
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-3069
Project: Geode
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: configuration, docs
Reporter: Dave Barnes
Following the user guide example for "Using the Swagger UI to Browse REST APIs"
(http://geode.apache.org/docs/guide/11/rest_apps/using_swagger.html), the user
sets up a jmx manager on a server, without starting a locator (which is not
needed for the example).
Then, when creating a region, the user gets an error message indicating that
there's a problem and recommending a procedure to fix it:
```
gfsh>create region --name=region1 --type=REPLICATE
--key-constraint=java.lang.String
Failed to persist the configuration changes due to this command, Revert the
command to maintain consistency.
Please use "status cluster-config-service" to determine whether Cluster
configuration service is RUNNING.
Member | Status
------------- | --------------------------------------------
gfsec-server1 | Region "/region1" created on "gfsec-server1"
```
This warning ("Failed to persist...Please use...") is new (the user guide
example, written for an earlier version, doesn't show it) and misleading, as
the operation has succeeded.
For v1.2, the user guide has been changed to also start a locator, which
instantiates the cluster configuration service, but the correct fix is to
suppress this message, as the locator is superfluous in this case.
NB: To recreate, follow the example instructions in the user guide, being sure
to add the 'optional' --J=-Dgemfire.http-service-port=8080 parameter to the
start server command.
