-----------------------------------
Summary: Issues with templeton configuration files
Key: HCATALOG-454
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HCATALOG-454
Project: HCatalog
Issue Type: Bug
Affects Versions: 0.5
Reporter: Alan Gates
Here we see some lines with version numbers. Do these accept globs? I can see
this being a source of misconfiguration where libraries are upgraded, a deploy
happens, and the config becomes outdated. The code and configs are often not
pushed out together.
{code}
<property>
<name>templeton.jar</name>
<value>${env.TEMPLETON_HOME}/templeton-0.1.0-dev.jar</value>
<description>The path to the Templeton jar file.</description>
</property>
{code}
Is there a good reason not to use HADOOP_HOME? Same with HCAT_PREFIX (why not
use HCAT_HOME)?
{code}
<property>
<name>templeton.hadoop</name>
<value>${env.HADOOP_PREFIX}/bin/hadoop</value>
<description>The path to the Hadoop executable.</description>
</property>
{code}
There are some properties that do not include units. This often leads to
misconfigurations.
{code}
<property>
<name>templeton.hdfs.cleanup.maxage</name>
<value>604800000</value>
<description>The maximum age of a templeton job</description>
</property>
{code}
