Gregory Chanan commented on HBASE-5529:
---------------------------------------
I don't think we need to add it to hbase-env.sh. The issue (at least what I've
experienced) is with the mapreduce containers. So we need it in the surefire
config when running unit tests, but when running the jobs normally, hadoop
already has the configuration, because of HADOOP-7154.
If we run into these errors in another area of hbase, we can add it at that
time.
