Jesse Yates commented on HBASE-10081: ------------------------------------- It wouldn't erase it in the shell, I _think_, but rather just update it for the the scripts and all child processes. So, the calling shell would still have the variable you set. As an example, say I have (checked locally on my Mac): {code} bash$ export HBASE_OPTS="-XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC" {code} and in my hbase-env.sh have {code} HBASE_OPTS="$HBASE_OPTS -XX:CustomThingy" {code} then after running bin/start-hbase.sh, I would still just see {code} bash$ echo $HBASE_OPTS -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC" {code} Should be fine, yes? > Since HBASE-7091, HBASE_OPTS cannot be set on the command line > -------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HBASE-10081 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-10081 > Project: HBase > Issue Type: Bug > Components: scripts > Affects Versions: 0.98.0, 0.96.0 > Reporter: Nicolas Liochon > Assignee: Liu Shaohui > Priority: Minor > Attachments: HBASE-10081-v1.diff > > > Discussed in HBASE-7091. > It's not critical, but a little bit surprising, as the comments in bin/hbase > doesn't say anything about this.
