I am a trafficserver devel, that is why I request this pkg :D Trafficserver is a property enterprise grade system before opensource, and the config management is one of the most powerful designs: 1, ts will backup each version of the config file, with a _XXX suffix, the default is set to keep 3 versions for each file 2, ts config file can be changed by many ways: 2.1, edit directly(or by any means for common config management) 2.2, changed by traffic_manager, triggered by commands such as traffic_line and traffic_shell 2.3, changed by the Cluster management, with broadcast like protocol. 2.4, changed by other config management function, such as config upload/rollback etc. 2.5, the remote config management interface, port 8083 there are problems when we deal with trafficserver and the modern operation systems: 1, for security reason, traffics_manager process will drop root privileges to nobody. and the configs is located in /etc/trafficserver, but it must be set to nobody writable. this is a problem that we still have no idea how to fix in the following release, maybe the config system will be changed to something like config database etc. 2, many config files in /etc/trafficserver can be override by configs(ie: most files can be refined in records.config) and environment variables, the config may be lose the meaning. in the opensource release, we have dropped the most config environment variables, and even command options etc, we make the release file directory a httpd like layout, that is Gentoo layout for. and most config options in records.config is a hiden options. that will prevent most confusion for common users. that is the most things we have done to make it much easy for users to manage the big ship( you can config 500 options in the records.config file for now, after we have removed many functions in the past 2 years ). for now, I don't think we have a quick solution to get all things settle. so I'd suggest we take it and give the devel team to get it improved. these cool features is very useful for ISP grade CDN operations, we'd like not get it removed blindly. hopes the information not miss-leading many thanks for you help! -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ package-review mailing list package-review@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/package-review
