HBase does not read hadoop-*.xml for dfs configuration after moving out 
hadoop/contrib
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: HBASE-573
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-573
             Project: Hadoop HBase
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: 0.1.0
            Reporter: Rong-En Fan
            Priority: Blocker


When HBase was in hadoop/contrib, the hbase script set both HADOOP_CONF_DIR
and HBASE_CONF_DIR to CLASSPATH, so that dfs's configuration can be loaded
correctly. However, when moved out hadoop/contrib, it only sets HBASE_CONF_DIR.

I can think of several possible solutions:

1) set HADOOP_CONF_DIR in hbase-env.sh, then add HADOOP_CONF_DIR to CLASSPATH 
as before
2) Instruct user to create links for hadoop-*.xml if they want to customize 
some dfs settings.
3) If only a small set of dfs confs are related to dfs's client, maybe they can 
be set via  hbase-site.xml, then hbase sets these for us when create a 
FileSystem obj.
