William Markito Oliveira commented on GEODE-182:
------------------------------------------------

[~amb] Thanks for bringing this back to life! I did implemented some of that 
with tests in my personal GitHub [1] but testing is still a bit complex to me 
specially around ServerLauncherCommands and 
LauncherLifecycleCommandsJUnitTest...   Maybe I'll be able to continue that 
work and send a PR

> In current cloud and container deployments it's very common to allow the 
> infrastructure to just re-execute the same command in order to provision a 
> new node for a system.
> Since Geode require unique member names on a system I'm proposing to create 
> something similar to what Docker and other projects does and generate 
> "random" names on when none are provided.
> Following the Docker implementation, I'd suggest something like:
> * List of adjectives
> * List of gems 
> and a combination using _ for example:
> {code}
> clever_alexandrite
> sharp_emerald
> tender_sapphire
> {code}
> Those would be server names when *-name* param is not specified OR if a 
> *property file* doesn't have a name as well. 
> From the initial list I'm thinking the model would have:
> * Adjectives = 56
> * Names = 70
> * Total names possible = 3920
> Other benefits I can see for non-cloud deployments as well is for example 
> setting member ports to 0 and by providing no name, it's also easier to 
> create multiple geode nodes on the same physical host without specifying 
> names.
> This wouldn't change current naming features and capabilities.  I'm not 
> planning to implement the feature for locators initially.
