Sean Mackrory commented on BIGTOP-939:
--------------------------------------

Thanks for the comments, everyone. I agree with the points about using /etc for 
the templates and /var/lib for the dynamic deployments - I will use those 
locations in my implementation.

Also this is not the first time I see a ticket about having templates, be it in 
builds or deployments. Would it be helpful if we start thinking about using a 
common templating engine for most of our use cases?

I would support that.

> 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.
