[jira] [Created] (CASSANDRA-4595) Nodetool commands like scrub uses hard coded data directory path to be /var/lib/cassandra

sankalp kohli created CASSANDRA-4595:
----------------------------------------

             Summary: Nodetool commands like scrub uses hard coded data directory path to be /var/lib/cassandra
                 Key: CASSANDRA-4595
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CASSANDRA-4595
             Project: Cassandra
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core
    Affects Versions: 1.1.4
            Reporter: sankalp kohli
            Priority: Minor


If your data directory is not /var/lib/cassandra, the scrub and other nodetool commands won't work. This should not be hard coded but rather be picked up from the yaml. 

We have to create sym links to get around it.

[jira] [Commented] (CASSANDRA-4595) Nodetool commands like scrub uses hard coded data directory path to be /var/lib/cassandra

Jonathan Ellis commented on CASSANDRA-4595:
-------------------------------------------

Nodetool just sends JMX commands to the server, it never tries to access data directories itself.

I further note that I don't see "/var/lib/cassandra" hardcoded anywhere in the source tree.
