symlinks do not work in CDSW 1.9.x and CDSW 1.10.x

"If /var/lib/cdsw is a symlink to another location, CDSW might fail to start. If this occurs, you will see various errors in the ds-vfs pod about MountVolume.Setup fail, or No Such Project" errors: mount.nfs: mounting 192.168.225.133:/var/lib/cdsw/current/projects failed, reason given by server: No such file or directory.

Avoid using a symlink for /var/lib/cdsw.

Known spark-port-forwarder issue with upgrade to CDSW 1.10.3 on HDP

When upgrading to CDSW on HDP to 1.10.3, you must add the following extra lines in /etc/cdsw/config/cdsw.conf:

SPARK_PORT_FORWARDER_MAXIMUM_PORT=32767
SPARK_PORT_FORWARDER_MINIMUM_PORT=20050

If you do not include these extra lines, the spark-port-forwarder will fail and CDSW will not restart.
