Marcus Olsson updated CASSANDRA-8376:
-------------------------------------
    Attachment: cassandra-2.1-8376.patch

Unfortunately I seem to be unable to assign myself to the ticket, is that a separate permission you need?

The attached patch is an extension to the current YamlConfigurationLoader using a conf.d directory that is scanned at startup and overrides configuration from cassandra.yaml. The files in the conf.d directory are read in order based on their names.

> I'm using Chef to generate cassandra.yaml.
> Part of this file is the "seed_provider", which is based on the Chef inventory.
> Changes to this file (due to Chef inventory change, when adding/removing Cassandra nodes) cause a restart, which is not desirable.
> The Chef way of handling this is to split the config file into two config files, one containing only the "seed_provider" and the other containing the rest of the config.
> Only the latter will cause a restart to Cassandra.
> This is achievable by either:
> 1. Specifying multiple config files to Cassandra
> 2. Specifying a conf.d directory
