Hemanth Yamijala commented on HADOOP-2861:
------------------------------------------

Yes. All short options would be accompanied with long options. That has always 
been the case in HOD. It will continue. I used -D because -d was taken for some 
other option. Though I can check that, and replace it, if necessary. 

Again, we are in agreement.

I'd really like for some inputs from Arkady because this is different from what 
he suggested.

> 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.
