Hi Pradeep, Perhaps I am speaking to a slightly different point, but when I change /etc/default/mesos-slave to add a new attribute, I have to remove file /tmp/mesos/meta/slaves/latest.
IIRC, mesos-slave itself, in failing to start after such a change, tells me to do this: rm -f /tmp/mesos/meta/slaves/latest But I know of no way to make such configuration changes without downtime. And I'd very much like it if Mesos supported such dynamic changes. I suppose this would require that the agent consult its default file on demand, rather than once at start-up.
