Provide mechanism for services to define which IP address to use
----------------------------------------------------------------
Key: ACCUMULO-220
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ACCUMULO-220
Project: Accumulo
Issue Type: New Feature
Components: gc, logger, master, monitor, tserver
Reporter: John Vines
Assignee: Eric Newton
Currently the services depend on INetAddress.getLocalHost().getHostAddress() to
determine a nodes IP Address. This works well, unless your running a node which
spans different networks. This can create undesirable network traversal,
depending on how your network is setup. We do not want to complicate things by
increasing the work to get running, but we should see about providing an
optional setting to have services attempt to identify as a user specified IP
before defaulting to getHostAddress().
