------------------------------------------
Summary: Overhead of Maintaining Configurable Storage Dir Name
Key: ASTERIXDB-2177
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ASTERIXDB-2177
Project: Apache AsterixDB
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: STO - Storage
Reporter: Murtadha Hubail
Assignee: Murtadha Hubail
Priority: Minor
Currently, users are allowed to specify the storage root directory name before
instance creation. Due to this, each node has to maintain another file with a
fixed name (root_metadata) to store the name of the storage directory that was
used in instance creation. Maintaining this (root_metadata) file adds an
overhead without much added value to the user. Therefore, it would be better to
have a fixed storage root directory name (storage) and eliminate the need to
maintain and look up the (root_metadata) file.
