Roman Shaposhnik commented on BIGTOP-939:
-----------------------------------------

[~mackrorysd] in general your proposal looks fine, there's one significant 
point though: once we start generating configs on the fly they have to be 
migrated to under /var/lib. /usr/lib is considered immutable for all practical 
purposes.

> Projects like Oozie and Sqoop present some configuration challenges compared 
> to other components because they use Tomcat. Sometimes small tweaks to the 
> configuration or classpath have to be done in a very component-specific way 
> as opposed to tweaking files in /etc/<comp>/conf or /etc/default. In one 
> case, we even have redundant Tomcat deployments for common configurations 
> (Oozie's SSL vs.  non-SSL).
> If the environment for Tomcat was generated more dynamically, we could avoid 
> this redundancy and could allow common features to be configured in more 
> "standard" ways.
