Hadoop 20.2 has HADOOP_HEAPSIZE (may be commented) defined in $HADOOP_CONF_DIR/hadoop-env.sh. $HADOOP_HOME/bin/hadoop uses this shell variable and constructs the max heap size.
1. Can you change HADOOP_HEAPSIZE and try? Either export on command line or change hadoop-env.sh. 2. Worst case - run 'hadoop' with 'set -x' turned on and you should be able to figure out whats wrong.
