Jason Lowe commented on MAPREDUCE-5653:
---------------------------------------

Thanks for the patch, Mithun.  Was there a reason 
addDefaultResource(DISTCP_DEFAULT_XML) wasn't used?  I think that should 
accomplish the same goal without explicit config iteration on DistCp's part, 
but haven't tried it to verify.  Is there a concern that distcp-default.xml 
could pollute other configurations if DistCp is not used in isolation?

> When a DistCp job is run through Oozie (through a Java action that launches 
> DistCp), one sees that mapred.child.java.opts as set from the caller is 
> honoured by DistCp. But, DistCp doesn't seem to honour any overrides for 
> configs mapreduce.[map,reduce].memory.mb.
> Problem has been identified. I'll post a patch shortly.
