Josh Elser commented on ACCUMULO-2844:
--------------------------------------
To avoid stomping on toes, I removed 1.7.0 and replaced it with 1.7.1 and
1.8.0. If this gets revisited, it appears that some more discussion on targeted
versions is necessary (or at least summary of stated opinions).
> Remove master/slave terminology
> -------------------------------
>
> Key: ACCUMULO-2844
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-2844
> Project: Accumulo
> Issue Type: Task
> Affects Versions: 1.5.0, 1.5.1, 1.6.0
> Reporter: Sean Busbey
> Assignee: Sean Busbey
> Fix For: 1.5.3, 1.6.3, 1.8.0, 1.7.1
>
>
> I'd like to remove our use of master/slave terminology in favor of something
> that doesn't carry a racially charged meaning.
> As a side effect I'd also like to pick names that carry better meaning of how
> things work within Accumulo.
> In the case of a single cluster, I'd like to
> * Change the Master role to Coordinator
> * Change the associated master server package to coordinator
> * Change the master configuration file to be named coordinators
> * Change the slaves configuration file to be named tservers
> In the case of the in-progress replication work I'd like to change
> terminology:
> * use _Primary Cluster_ in place of _Master Cluster_
> * use _Replica Clusters_ in place of _Slave Clusters_
> I intend to do this in all active branches in a way that maintains
> compatibility of existing configuration files and serialized actions (i.e.
> fate operations) within their major branch. In the current unreleased major
> branch I expect upgrading will require user action (e.g. renaming
> configuration files).
