Environment

directory, sets `$PATH` and other environment variables to find HAWQ files.
Most importantly, `greenplum_path.sh` sets the `$GPHOME` environment variable
to point to the root directory of the HAWQ installation. If you installed HAWQ
from a product distribution, the HAWQ root is typically `/usr/local/hawq`. If
