Keith Turner commented on ACCUMULO-1717:
----------------------------------------
I think its ok to just bail if someone is trying to init /. In the off chance
that someone really wants this we can always add an option to init later. I
would not add this option till someone ask for it.
> accumulo should refuse to init or start with a directory of / (especially
> file:///)

> Project: Accumulo
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: master
> Affects Versions: 1.6.0
> Reporter: Steve Loughran
>
> Accumulo is happy to init the root directory of a file system. It's hard to
> see when this would ever be a good idea, especially if that filesystem is
> file:/// . A sanity check to catch this -a sign of a bad configuration- would
> stop accidentally damaging the filesystem
