[teiid-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (TEIID-464) Shared Installation Option

[Ramesh Reddy (JIRA)]

    [ https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/TEIID-464?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12460673#action_12460673 ] 

Ramesh Reddy commented on TEIID-464:
------------------------------------

per discussion with Van last week, this can be solved by below

- Right now, the boot strap start-up happens by looking up a property file called "metamatrix.properties". This file has all the properties to start a server.

however if we change start up script  such that, instead of looking for "metamatrix.properties", one can supply the for example "foo.properties",  during the startup, to load a particular node then the issue is solved. However, additional burden on the system admin/installer is to rename the automatically created "metamatrix.properties" to "foo.properties" after the installation is finished for a node. Since this usecase not so normal, putting little burden on the system admin is warranted.

By default, if one does not supply a property file, it can still look for 'metamatrix.properties" file in classpath to preserve the current behaviour. .

> We need to decide if/how we're going to support the shared  
> installation option.     With the changes to what's stored in the  
> metamatrix.properties (i.e., host properties and config.name), this  
> now complicates how we'll install (i.e., system host setup and odbc) /  
> support this feature.
