Brock Noland created FLUME-2347: ----------------------------------- Summary: Add FLUME_JAVA_OPTS which allows users to inject java properties from cmd line Key: FLUME-2347 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLUME-2347 Project: Flume Issue Type: Bug Reporter: Brock Noland Assignee: Brock Noland Attachments: FLUME-2347.patch
In order to set java properties such as -X, -D, and -javaagent we have teh following: * flume-ng takes -X and -D as native properties * JAVA_OPTS can be placed in the flume-env.sh file However, there is no way to set properties on the command line which do not start with -X or -D. eg. env JAVA_OPTS="-javaagent...." flume-ng .... Therefore I suggest we introduce FLUME_JAVA_OPTS which sets properties from the env starting the flume-ng command. This will not impact users who use JAVA_OPTs in the non-flume environment incompatibly with flume. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
