Vinay commented on HADOOP-8464:
-------------------------------

Ideally calling hadoop-env.sh multiple times should not create any problems.

Because hadoop-config.sh itself called from so many files. Ex: 
hadoop-daemon.sh, slaves.sh, hdfs, yarn, etc.

We can remove the explicit call of hadoop-env.sh from scripts other than 
hadoop-config.sh

HADOOP-8476 will resolve all the issues.

> Many (most? all?) scripts include hadoop-env.sh twice.  The first time is 
> indirectly:  scripts do ". hadoop-config.sh" and hadoop-config.sh then does 
> ". hadoop-env.sh".  Then scripts will later directly do ". hadoop-env.sh".
> This double-include is error prone.
> Note several Jira's reporting issues with HADOOP_LOG_DIR set to /user/user 
> (e.g. /root/root, /hadoop/hadop, etc).  This is because hadoop-env.sh has 
> done "HADOOP_LOG_DIR=$HADOOP_LOG_DIR/$user".  Many fixes for those issues are 
> around addressing that one line, but it seems that this is going to be a 
> recurring theme of breakages.  It's probably also why services are routinely 
> started with many command line arguments repeated multiple times.
> I'm not familiar enough with the "design" of all the scripts, so not sure 
> what the solution should be.
