Allen Wittenauer commented on HADOOP-2551:
------------------------------------------

In particular, I was thinking that it might be useful to have:

HADOOP_GLOBAL_OPTS = applies to all processes

HADOOP_NAMENODE_OPTS = applies to just the namenode

HADOOP_TASK_OPTS = applies to just tasks

HADOOP_JT_OPTS = applies to the job tracker

HADOOP_TT_OPTS = applies to task trackers

HADOOP_CLIENT_OPTS = applies to clients, such as hadoop fsck, hadoop dfs, etc.

Additionally, it might be useful to split out the HADOOP_HEAPSIZE setting as 
well.

> 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.
