Description

Hi,

Currently the creation and handling of data folder required by the performance analyzer plugin is handled by tarball building script. However, we intend to decouple it and let the plugin handle want it needs.
Can the performance analyzer fix and handle the direct path they need? It is creating a special step added to decoupled code, a great way to add complexity that we will have trouble resolving in the future.

Research direction

Start with the linked opendistro-tar-build.sh lines 113-114, then trace how the performance analyzer plugin currently creates and handles its data folder. The work is done when the tarball-building script no longer owns that setup and the plugin handles the direct path it requires.
