[jira] Commented: (HADOOP-5291) chukwa agent should do something sensible if CHUKWA_HOME isn't defined

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-5291?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12678507#action_12678507 ] 

Eric Yang commented on HADOOP-5291:
-----------------------------------

I think if CHUKWA_HOME is not defined, we might want to bail out instead of using /tmp/chukwa as CHUKWA_HOME.  This will make Chukwa less platform dependent.

> If Chukwa is started in such a way that CHUKWA_HOME doesn't get set, then pid files are stored in chukwa/null/var....  This comes up if, e.g., the agent is started within eclipse.  We can make this case look prettier by defaulting to /tmp.
