Github user pwendell commented on a diff in the pull request: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/299#discussion_r11567194 --- Diff: yarn/common/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/deploy/yarn/ClientBase.scala --- @@ -340,8 +341,22 @@ trait ClientBase extends Logging { JAVA_OPTS += " -XX:CMSIncrementalDutyCycle=10 " } - if (env.isDefinedAt("SPARK_JAVA_OPTS")) { - JAVA_OPTS += " " + env("SPARK_JAVA_OPTS") + --- End diff -- Thinking a bit more, we have two options here: (a) make a backwards incompatible change here and people have to re-write there jobs (b) continue supporting shipping SPARK_JAVA_OPTS from the driver to the executors for the entire 1.X family of Spark releases (e.g probably years). I guess we can do (a) but I might give a loud error message here so that users change this.
