Todd Lipcon commented on MAPREDUCE-1207:
----------------------------------------

+1 for the idea, though I wonder which should take precedence - should the 
admin options come first or second?

Could this not be done by changing the default configuration to be final 
"-Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true ${mapred.child.java.opts.user}" and then 
having users use that property to append their options?

> It will be useful for allow cluster-admins to set some java options for child 
> map/reduce tasks. 
> E.g. We've had to ask users to set -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true in their 
> jobs, it would be nice to do it for all users in such scenarios even when 
> people override mapred.child.{map|reduce}.java.opts but forget to add this.
