Portability of hadoop shell scripts for deployment
--------------------------------------------------
Key: HADOOP-352
URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-352
Project: Hadoop
Type: Bug
Versions: 0.4.0
Reporter: Jean-Baptiste Quenot
Hadoop shell scripts are based on /bin/bash, which is a "standard" shell only
on GNU/Linux. On other Unix systems like FreeBSD however the "standard" shell
is /bin/sh. The attached patch addresses these compatiblity issues. Note that
Solaris support is not yet tested.
Also, the best way to set the HADOOP_HOME variable upon ssh connection in a
portable way is to set it in .ssh/environment. The bash startup script
".bashrc" is not an option on systems where "bash" is not installed.
