Sean Mackrory updated BIGTOP-1215:
----------------------------------

    Attachment: 0001-BIGTOP-1215.-Refactor-Tomcat-deployment.patch

This went much smoother than I thought. This patch moves all the deployment code to one script per component, and makes a more consistent and more obvious distinction between the binaries and the configuration files.

I forgot to mention that one main motivation for this change is that future releases of Sqoop 2 will provide a tooling feature that requires a separate deployment of CATALINA_BASE from any currently running instance. Also, HttpFS will be adding SSL support, so we'll have multiple configuration for HttpFS just like we do for Oozie, so we might want to rename the main configuration to tomcat-conf.http for consistency with the way Oozie does it, but that's a separate issue...

> Since my original changes to have Tomcat configuration stored in /etc, with only binaries under /usr/lib, I've had a few thoughts on how it should've been done better that I'd like to get in before 0.8.0, which would be the first release my changes are included in.
> * The code for doing the deployment should be a separate script, rather than a function defined separately in each entry point. This will reduce code duplication and prevent inconsistency, and also make it clearer for users following along.
> * The code in /etc only includes the /conf/ folder. There are some other config files that may need to be edited by users for things like HTTPS support. These should be stored in /etc as well and deployed at the same time.
