nijel commented on HBASE-12021: ------------------------------- Thanks ashish for the quick response +1 for the patch > Hbase shell does not respect the HBASE_OPTS set by the user in console > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-12021 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-12021 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: shell > Affects Versions: 2.0.0 > Reporter: nijel > Assignee: Ashish Singhi > Priority: Minor > Attachments: HBASE-12021.patch > > > Before starting hbase shell i have set some -D parameters reauired for > kerberos authentication in HBASE_OPTS (there is no other variables are used > when shell is executed). But while invoking Hbase shell it is not used. > The code in hbase-env.sh is > export HBASE_OPTS="-XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC" > This will overwrite the the value set in the console > There can be 2 options to support this > 1. Append the HBASE_OPTS like HBASE_OPTS="$HBASE_OPTS > -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC". > 2. Have a new variable (HBASE_CLIENT_OPTS) which is can be appended in shell > section of "hbase" file -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
