Zhimeng Shi commented on BOOKKEEPER-1099:
-----------------------------------------

The problem is we don't have the script to create the directory. Each time 
deploy to new machine we need manually call the bookie format command to create 
the folders (also in one box test). Although I want to make it work on the 
deployment script, it need read the configure file to know the folder name, and 
we also start support different config value for different cluster, which need 
more logic to parse the config file. That's why I want to add this logic into 
the code rather than script to parse the config again.

I think there is nothing wrong with either way, it's just preference. I like to 
make thing simpler, which can also benefit one box case and container case.  
And adding a InitFolder function will not hurt anything, but I can understand 
your preferred way to mount disk too. 

Software and programming is so flexible, so in this case I will respect owner's 
decision. I'll discuss with JV with the final solution. 

> Make bookie automatically create folders on new machine.

> When bookie start and found it need run bookie format to create folders it 
> should do that automatically. That way will make new machine deployment and 
> machine replacement process much simpler without manually call the 
> bookieformat command.
