Siddharth Wagle commented on HBASE-13120: ----------------------------------------- [~busbey] Renamed. _if you just check if the string is non-zero length it'll be easier to integrate programmatically determining if we should disable._ I initially did this but then changed to explicit check for _true_ in order to leave only a single case for disable and regular behavior for all other cases, for example someone doing a HBASE_DISABLE_HADOOP_CLASSPATH_LOOKUP="false" and the lookup still getting disabled. > Allow disabling hadoop classpath and native library lookup > ---------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-13120 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-13120 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: hbase > Affects Versions: 0.98.0 > Reporter: Siddharth Wagle > Attachments: HBASE-13120-1.patch, HBASE-13120.patch > > > - Current bin/hbase script sets the java.library.path to include hadoop > native libs based on what version of hadoop is installed on the box. > {code} > HADOOP_IN_PATH=$(PATH="${HADOOP_HOME:-${HADOOP_PREFIX}}/bin:$PATH" which > hadoop 2>/dev/null) > {code} > - This effectively means that a self-contained HBase running with a different > version of embedded hadoop jars will fail to work in case of version > incompatibilities. > - Example: AMBARI-5707, runs a embedded HBase on local FS side-by-side with > cluster Hadoop installation. > - It would be good to have a hbase-env variable to completely override native > lib path or a config to disable native lib path lookup, in which case user > has to provide it during start. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
