for deep storage, what's the difference between

controller.data.dir

setting in

controller.conf

, and

outputDirURI

in ingestion job spec?

Former is where controller will store the segments. Latter is where the ingestion job will write the segments before pushing to Pinot controller. IIRC they can be the same, but better to keep them different to avoid any accidental delete from Pinot’s deep store

got it, thanks!
