--------------------------------------
Summary: Surefire needs to make sure the JVMs it fires up are
64-bit
Key: HADOOP-12261
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-12261
Project: Hadoop Common
Issue Type: Bug
Components: test
Affects Versions: 2.7.1
Reporter: Alan Burlison
hadoop-project/pom.xml sets maven-surefire-plugin.argLine to include -Xmx4096m.
Allocating that amount of memory requires a 64-bit JVM, but on platforms with
both 32 and 64-bit JVMs surefire runs the 32 bit version by default and tests
fail to start as a result. "-d64" should be added to the command-line arguments
to ensure a 64-bit JVM is always used.
