Sam Corbett commented on BROOKLYN-208:
--------------------------------------
Mike recently worked on this problem too:
https://github.com/apache/incubator-brooklyn/pull/1090. He configured
attributeWhenReady to time out after one minute when the target entity is
stopping, stopped or destroyed.
> Config resolution on shutdown
> -----------------------------
>
> Key: BROOKLYN-208
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BROOKLYN-208
> Project: Brooklyn
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 0.9.0
> Reporter: Graeme Miller
> Priority: Minor
>
> Consider a blueprint that has two entities, Entity1 and Entity2. Entity1 has
> a brooklyn.config value Conf1. Entity2 has a brookyln.config value Conf2,
> which uses attributeWhenReady to get the value of Conf1.
> When Entity2 is shutting down, it attempts to get Conf2 (for example because
> it is a 'shell.env' parameter). Brooklyn then creates a task to get the value
> of Conf1 to populate it, however, Entity1 has already shutdown. Entity2 now
> waits for the value until a timeout and then cancels resolving Conf2.
> To fix this situation, I would like to suggest that config values should be
> immutable, I.E. should be resolved once before the entity starts and never
> again.
