----------------------------------------
Summary: Create ACCUMULO_CONF_DIR environment variable
Key: ACCUMULO-1550
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-1550
Project: Accumulo
Issue Type: Bug
Components: scripts
Affects Versions: 1.5.0, 1.4.3, 1.6.0
Reporter: Jonathan Hsieh
Assignee: Jonathan Hsieh
Hadoop (and many of the other projects in the hadoop stack) have a
HADOOP_CONF_DIR (<project>_CONF_DIR) environment variable that is used to start
daemons using the configuration specified.
This is convenient because it decouples the configuration from the
distributions -- daemons can be run with different configs without having to
perform stateful file operations.
For example one could run accumulo like this:
{code}
ACCUMULO_CONF_DIR=/etc/accumulo/conf accumulo ....
{code}
or set env variables in .bashrc/jenkins scripts for different configurations
{code}
export ACCUMULO_CONF_DIR=$ACCUMULO_HOME/conf/examples/1GB/standalone
.. run test
export ACCUMULO_CONF_DIR=$ACCUMULO_HOME/conf/examples/1GB/native-standalone
.. run test
{code}
