Todd Lipcon commented on HBASE-4522:
------------------------------------

We do configuration management here using puppet. Other deploys I"m aware of 
use Chef or bcfg2.

It's not that I think the feature is risky, really... it just feels like bloat 
and yet another thing to document. Do any other organizations find this feature 
useful?

A more general solution that I'd support would be to support something like 
"hbase/conf.d" where any XML files in that directory would be sorted by name, 
and loaded in that order. So you could have 01-site.xml, 02-myapplication.xml, 
03-my-machine-overrides.xml, etc. This is a more familiar construct for most 
sysadmins.

> 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.
