Hi,

I'm trying to setup a drill server, running in embedded mode, so users will
be able to access a centralized location and I need assistance/confirmation
on the following:

   1. As it's a server, I need it to run Drill as daemon or other similar
   method. Everything I tried didn't work except using *screen. *Please
   confirm that using screen is ok and functionality doesn't regress as a
   result.
   2. When trying to run

create table dfs.tmp.`tableName` as select * from
dfs.`/mnt/drill-work/XXX/XXX/*.gz`;  (gz holds json files)

I'm getting:

org.apache.drill.common.exceptions.UserRemoteException: VALIDATION ERROR:
>From line 1, column 48 to line 1, column 91: Table
'/mnt/drill-work/XXX/XXX/*.gz' not found [Error Id:
87c77937-c3c9-4d42-80c3-20d7de6738eb on XXX.XXX.com:XXX]


the files definitely exist in /mnt/drill-work/XXX/XXX/*.gz.

Question is, does drill go to the server /mnt/drill-work or does it look
for it in on the client (laptop)? I'm using the web UI interface.

Thinking that maybe Drill is looking at my laptop and not on the server, I
was trying to change dfs storage definitions but I noticed that the update
button doesn't work (!) so effectively I cannot make changes to the
storage definitions.

Thanks a lot!
