Github user andrewor14 commented on a diff in the pull request: https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/1538#discussion_r15321907 --- Diff: core/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/deploy/worker/CommandUtils.scala --- @@ -62,20 +62,23 @@ object CommandUtils extends Logging { val joined = command.libraryPathEntries.mkString(File.pathSeparator) Seq(s"-Djava.library.path=$joined") } else { - Seq() + Seq() } val permGenOpt = Seq("-XX:MaxPermSize=128m") + // Convert Spark properties to java system properties + val sparkOpts = command.sparkProps.map { case (k, v) => s"-D$k=$v" } --- End diff -- Note that the logic here is more equivalent to https://github.com/apache/spark/blob/master/yarn/common/src/main/scala/org/apache/spark/deploy/yarn/ClientBase.scala#L388, because the driver needs basic configs like `spark.master` and `spark.app.name` to launch the SparkContext in addition to just akka and authentication configs. But yes, when we launch the executors we might actually want to only filter out the akka and authentication ones, and pull in the rest from the driver later on, similar to how yarn handles it in your link.
