Roman Shaposhnik commented on HADOOP-8332: ------------------------------------------ @Robert, I understand your concerns and that's why: # I would like this change to be vetted by as large of a community as possible # my current patch leaves an option of sticking with the absolute path for those who really need that > make default container-executor.conf.dir be a path relative to the > container-executor binary > -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-8332 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8332 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: security > Affects Versions: 0.23.1 > Reporter: Roman Shaposhnik > Assignee: Roman Shaposhnik > Fix For: 2.0.0 > > Attachments: HADOOP-8332.patch.txt > > > Currently, container-executor binary has an absolute pathname of its > configuration file baked in. This prevents an easy relocation of the > configuration files when dealing with multiple Hadoop installs on the same > node. It would be nice to at least allow for a relative path resolution > starting from the location of the container-executor binary itself.
