>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-13341
>             Project: Hadoop Common
>          Issue Type: Improvement
>          Components: scripts
>    Affects Versions: 3.0.0-alpha1

> Big features like YARN-2928 demonstrate that even senior level Hadoop 
> developers forget that daemons need a custom _OPTS env var.  We can replace 
> all of the custom vars with generic handling just like we do for the username 
> check.
> For example, with generic handling in place:
> || Old Var || New Var ||
> | HADOOP_NAMENODE_OPTS | HDFS_namenode_OPTS |
> | YARN_RESOURCEMANAGER_OPTS | YARN_resourcemanager_OPTS |
> | n/a | YARN_timelinereader_OPTS |
> | n/a | HADOOP_distcp_OPTS |
> | n/a | MAPRED_distcp_OPTS |
> This makes it:
> a) consistent across the entire project
> b) consistent for every subcommand
> c) eliminates almost all of the custom appending in the case statements
> It's worth pointing out that subcommands like distcp that sometimes need a 
> higher than normal client-side heapsize or custom options are a huge win.  
> Combined with .hadooprc and/or dynamic subcommands, it means users can easily 
> do customizations based upon their needs without a lot of weirdo shell 
> aliasing or one line shell scripts off to the side.
