DataNode started with illegal startup options should print usage and stop
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HADOOP-995
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-995
             Project: Hadoop
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Konstantin Shvachko


Now that we have data-node startup options we should enforce them and not start 
the data-node when the options are illegal.
Currently the data-node just ignores illegal option.
If I start my data-node with --rack option without the argument the data-node 
prints the usage and starts anyway.
If I provide an unspecified option, say -xxx, then even the usage message is 
not printed.
I see an inconsistency here between the usage information and the data-node 
behavior.
