Ted Yu created HBASE-10164:
------------------------------

             Summary: Allow heapsize of different units to be passed as 
HBASE_HEAPSIZE
                 Key: HBASE-10164
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-10164
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Ted Yu


Currently HBASE_HEAPSIZE doesn't expect units.
{code}
$ HBASE_HEAPSIZE=5G /usr/lib/hbase/bin/hbase shell
Invalid maximum heap size: -Xmx5Gm
Error: Could not create the Java Virtual Machine.
Error: A fatal exception has occurred. Program will exit.
{code}
It would be more user friendly if different units of heapsize can be passed 
through HBASE_HEAPSIZE
If unit ('m' or 'G') is specified, 'm' doesn't need to be appended.
