Konstantin Boudnik commented on BIGTOP-1488:
--------------------------------------------

Looks ok. Are ant and maven the only once we download from an Apache mirror? (considering the Ant will go away with next Pig release it doesn't look worthy doing this just for one tarball; but whatever).

I will try to run it and if it works I will commit it. Thanks Alex!

> In the bigtop_toolchain module, the puppet modules use hardcoded apache mirror sites to download component tar balls(for example, use ftp://mirror.reverse.net/pub/apache/maven/maven-3/3.0.5/binaries/apache-maven-3.0.5-bin.tar.gz to download maven).
> In some cases the hardcoded mirror maybe very slow, causing the installation to be very slow or even fail.
> We can use the "www.apache.org/dyn/closer.cgi" to choose apache mirrors automatically and faster the installatin.
