             Summary: Simplify Accumulo scripts and config files
                 Key: ACCUMULO-4490
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-4490
             Project: Accumulo
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: scripts, start
    Affects Versions: 2.0.0
            Reporter: Mike Walch
            Assignee: Mike Walch
             Fix For: 2.0.0


Currently, there are too many Accumulo scripts and config files in 'bin' and 
'conf' respectively.  It is confusing to know which scripts or configuration 
file should be used.  Some scripts are just used by other scripts.  Some 
configuration file are only needed in rare situations.  Scripts also lack 
usage/help docs.

Below is general plan to fix this:

# Reduce the number of scripts in 'bin' directory
#* Move implementation/uncommon scripts to 'scripts' directory
#* Scripts in `bin` should be simple wrapper scripts that either call Java or 
implementation script in `scripts' directory
# Scripts in 'bin' should have good help/usage information.
# Only generate one set of example configuration in 'conf/examples'. User can 
use bootstrap-config to generate config for different environments.
# Change bootstrap-config to only generate minimal config necessary.
# For uncommon configuration files (like logging), fall back to example file in 
'conf/examples' if file not present in 'conf'
