[HOD] Improve the user interface for the HOD commands
-----------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HADOOP-2861
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2861
             Project: Hadoop Core
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: contrib/hod
    Affects Versions: 0.16.0
            Reporter: Hemanth Yamijala


The current command line for HOD is not user-friendly or conventional. 
Following improvements are required:

- We shouldn't require the quotes around the operation.
- Can we define a HOD_CLUSTER_DIR environment variable which would be used by 
default ?

With these two, one can imagine a very simple command line for HOD. Something 
like:

hod-allocate 3
hod-deallocate

hod-allocate 3 ~/hod-clusters/test
hod-deallocate ~/hod-clusters/test

This would also be backward compatible for people who're used to the current 
model.
