> A typical Flume NG invocation is:
> bin/flume-ng --conf-file conf/flume-conf.properties.template --conf conf --name agent1
> ...and the corresponding invocation after installing the Flume NG bigtop package would be:
> /usr/lib/flume-ng/bin/flume-ng --conf-file /etc/flume-ng/conf/flume.conf --conf /etc/flume-ng/conf --name agent
> The Flume NG init script, installed as part of Bigtop Flume NG, allows us to modify:
> 1) the --conf-file value (via FLUME_CONF_FILE)
> 2) the --name value (via FLUME_AGENT_NAME)
> ...but not the --conf value. So the user loses some flexibility when using Bigtop Flume NG over Apache Flume NG.
> I recommend that the /etc/init.d/flume-ng-agent script be modified to allow the user to set FLUME_CONF_DIR. That is, in this init script, please change this:
> FLUME_CONF_DIR=/etc/flume-ng/conf
> ..to this:
> FLUME_CONF_DIR=${FLUME_CONF_DIR:-/etc/flume-ng/conf}
