Mikhail Bautin commented on HBASE-4522:
---------------------------------------

@Todd: if I understand correctly, template-based configuration management means 
you generate configuration files using an external site-specific tool. As far 
as I see, there is no standardized tool like that so far in the HBase user 
community (could you please point it out to me if I'm wrong?)  Our approach 
does not require an external template system (it only relies on 
copying/symlinking the right files into the conf directory) and provides a 
clearer separation of between application-specific and site-specific 
configuration. The "feature" in this JIRA is around two lines of code and does 
not break existing functionality while providing additional flexibility. That 
said, it would be very interesting to hear about alternative approaches to 
Hadoop/HBase configuration management for large multi-cluster deployments -- 
please feel free to share.

> The motivation for diff is that we want to override some config change for 
> any specific cluster easily by just adding the config entries in the 
> hbase-site-custom.xml for that cluster. This change adds the 
> hbase-site-custom.xml configuration file into HBaseConfiguration.
