Eric Newton commented on ACCUMULO-1901:
---------------------------------------

It used to use the masters file.  Specifically, just the first entry in the masters file.

> start-here.sh starts only one GC process even if more are defined

> Even when a second host is listed in the gc file, the gc process is only ever started on the first host listed in the gc file.  The issue lies in lines 48-55 in start-here.sh as shown below:
> {code}
> for host in $HOSTS
> do
>     if [ ${host} = ${GC} ]
>     then
>         ${bin}/start-server.sh $GC gc "garbage collector"
>         break
>     fi
> done
> {code}
> Simple fix:
> {code}
> for host in $HOSTS
> do
>     if grep -q "^${host}\$" $ACCUMULO_HOME/conf/gc
>     then
>         ${bin}/start-server.sh ${host} gc "garbage collector"
>         break
>     fi
> done
> {code}
> This fix works in my 1.4.2 environment.  stop-here.sh already sweeps all possible processes to kill them, so I assumed no fix was needed there, but on my last cluster shutdown I found the stop-all.sh script only stopped the GC on the Master host. That fix is still outstanding.
