Vinod Kumar Vavilapalli commented on HADOOP-2551:
-------------------------------------------------

What happened with the idea of doing away with HADOOP_HEAPSIZE completely? The 
patch doesn't have any fix for this. Track this on another JIRA?

Currently, if I specify both HADOOP_HEAPSIZE=500 and 
HADOOP_JOBTRACKER_OPTS=-Xmx1024m, both get passed to jobtracker (JT command 
line: "java -Xmx500m -Xmx1024m .......") and the runtime picks up the last 
value. So, it works for now, but it would have been cleaner had HADOOP_HEAPSIZE 
been kicked of in entirety.

> We often configure our HADOOP_OPTS on the name node to have JMX running so 
> that we can do JVM monitoring.  But doing so means that we need to edit this 
> file if we want to run other hadoop commands, such as fsck.  It would be 
> useful if hadoop-env.sh was refactored a bit so that there were different 
> and/or cascading HADOOP_OPTS dependent upon which process/task was being 
> performed.
