             Summary: Add RedHat default Java install location to detection script
                 Key: BIGTOP-2936
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BIGTOP-2936
             Project: Bigtop
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: toolchain
            Reporter: Lars Francke


When following the RedHat [documentation|https://access.redhat.com/solutions/732883]documentation for installing JDK 8 it is being installed in a location that does not seem to be detected by the {{bigtop-detect-javahome}} script.

It is being installed in a directory that looks like this: {{/usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0-oracle-1.8.0.141-1jpp.1.el7_3.x86_64}}

From the RPM postinstall script:
{code}
alternatives --install /usr/lib/jvm/java-oracle ...
alternatives --install /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0 ...
alternatives --install /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.8.0-oracle ...
{code}

I would suggest adding those three locations. The last two can be added to {{JAVA8_HOME_CANDIDATES}} and the first to {{MISCJAVA_HOME_CANDIDATES}}.

If you agree I'm happy to prepare a patch.
