Colin Patrick McCabe commented on HADOOP-12261:
-----------------------------------------------
Btw, [~alanbur]... I agree that the Hadoop test suite could be in better shape
than it is. It is certainly frustrating.
I think what you should do is create a blacklist of tests that you can't get to
work, and work towards validating Solaris support on all the other tests. Over
time, you can gradually take tests off the blacklist as we fix whatever is
making them flaky or difficult to run in your environment.

> hadoop-project/pom.xml sets maven-surefire-plugin.argLine to include
> -Xmx4096m. Allocating that amount of memory requires a 64-bit JVM, but on
> platforms with both 32 and 64-bit JVMs surefire runs the 32 bit version by
> default and tests fail to start as a result. "-d64" should be added to the
> command-line arguments to ensure a 64-bit JVM is always used.
