I don't really know much about the Hadoop Metrics library. I was thinking maybe you could create a "SystemProperties" tag or something like that, and then on the client side of the metrics, pull out the specific property you need. That way, the only thing tied to the specific property was the launch script and the metrics consumer... and not any part of Accumulo's code. However, if that is not feasible for whatever reason, using the specific flag, if present, seems perfectly appropriate to me to me. It's basically what we did for the monitor log appender. If you wanted to push the service name implementation into the TabletServer, rather than the metrics code, that would work, too. Could create a method, `tabletServer.getServiceName()` or similar, to place the property-retrieval implementation.
