Eason Zhang commented on TRAFODION-2491:
----------------------------------------
In pyinstaller, user can specify trafodion user's home directory by using
'home_dir' config in the config file.
For example:
home_dir = /opt/trafodion
and user can also specify the trafodion folder name:
traf_dirname = trafodion-x-x-x
So trafodion will be installed on /opt/trafodion/trafodion-x-x-x
> pyinstaller - need option to install somewhere beside /home

> Key: TRAFODION-2491
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TRAFODION-2491
> Project: Apache Trafodion
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: installer
> Affects Versions: 2.1-incubating
> Environment: jenkins
> Reporter: Steve Varnau
> Assignee: Eason Zhang
>
> The bash installer allows an arbitrary path for TRAF_HOME, but defaults to
> /home/...
> The pyinstaller allows an arbitrary directory name, but always places it in
> home directory of TRAF_USER (trafodion).
> Jenkins automation uses this feature to be sure log files can be archived
> from the jenkins workspace. I think other folks testing on large clusters do
> as well.
> Production use may also need this if /home filesystem is too small for logs
> and other things that go there.
> In future, we need installation in standard system locations (/usr/, /etc/,
> /var/log, ...), but until then, I think we need flexible location of
> TRAF_HOME.
> This is not a show-stopper for jenkins, but would make the transition a lot
> easier.
