Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-9422:
----------------------------------------
also, because it is at error, the only way to stop it appearing in the logs is
to add a line to the log to suppress all error level events
{code}
log4j.logger.org.apache.hadoop.util.Shell=FATAL
{code}
This can actually hide warning messages that are in fact significant, namely
the failure of things to exec properly
> HADOOP_HOME should not be required to be set to be able to launch commands
> using hadoop.util.Shell
