> Need to update semantics of MESOS_HOME
> --------------------------------------
>
> Key: MESOS-85
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MESOS-85
> Project: Mesos
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: agent, build, master, test
> Reporter: Benjamin Hindman
> Assignee: Charles Reiss
> Priority: Critical
>
> Currently MESOS_HOME is getting used for too much stuff. It is used to
> represent where the slave should store it's "work" directory, where the slave
> expects "killtree" to be, where the master and slave should put logging,
> where the tests assume certain scripts live, etc. In practice this has meant
> that if mesos gets installed at /usr/local/mesos, then slave work directories
> go there, logs go there, etc, which is totally unacceptable.
> MESOS_HOME should either be eliminated, or it's semantics should be changed
> so that it only represents where binaries live, but not where things like
> work directories exist, logs go, etc. In addition, the testing infrastructure
> should get updated so that the external tests can find the scripts they need
> to run things *without* needing MESOS_HOME while still supporting a remote
> build directory.
> This issue is tagged as a blocker because in order to do the port to
> autotools cleanly, this really needs to get done in order to run the external
> tests.
