> HIVE-12497 removed HADOOP_CLIENT_OPTS as it slowed down cli launch time. But 
> it leads to log4j2 not being initialized when using services other than CLI. 
> Other services like metastore, schematool etc. rely on log4j to initialize 
> the logging based on the presence of log4j2.properties file in the classpath. 
> If we use the standard name for log4j configuration file (log4j2.properties) 
> then automatic initialization will happen. If not, we have to tell log4j to 
> look for specific properties file. This is done via -Dlog4j.configurationFile 
> system property. If we pass this system property via HADOOP_CLIENT_OPTS then 
> all hive services will have logging initialized properly. 
> In HIVE-12497, the problem was we had HADOOP_CLIENT_OPTS at the top of the 
> script. As a result, hadoop and hbase commands tries to initialize logging 
> which took long time slowing down the startup time.
