I tried using the new RC2 rpm (Thanks, Chris!) to upgrade a couple of OpenTSDB RC1 instances and in the process, ended up losing the ability to start/stop OpenTSDB as a service using:
service opentsdb [start|stop]
There's no script in /etc/init.d nor any config in /etc at all.
I've removed RC2 and re-installed RC1, verifying that RC1 delivered the init.d script and default config.
There are copies of config and the init.d script in /usr/share/opentsdb/etc, but I don't know when those were created (at RC2 install? at RC1 re-install? etc.)
I know we were tracking a defect around startup scripts, but it appeared to be more around Ubuntu. I'm running Amazon Linux in EC2.
