---------------------------------

    Attachment: HBASE-10500.00.patch

Here's a simple patch for HadoopQA that disables the blockcache for these tools.

> Running {{hbck --repair}} when BucketCache is enabled in offheap mode can 
> cause OOM. This is apparently because {{bin/hbase}} does not include 
> $HBASE_REGIONSERVER_OPTS for hbck. It instantiates an HRegion instance as 
> part of HDFSIntegrityFixer.handleHoleInRegionChain. That HRegion initializes 
> its CacheConfig, which doesn't have the necessary Direct Memory.
> Possible solutions include:
>  - disable blockcache in the config used by hbck when running its repairs
>  - include HBASE_REGIONSERVER_OPTS in the HBaseFSCK startup arguments
> I'm leaning toward the former because it's possible that hbck is run on a 
> host with different hardware profile as the RS.
