Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-8938:
----------------------------------------
Things that are often useful to know
* Java home: value and what is at the far end
* Hadoop conf directory picked up (symlink games can cause confusion)
* which *-site.xml files are being picked up (full path)
* full path to commands
* native lib directory and contents
This isn't stuff that needs to be printed every run, so it should be something that could
be turned on if needed.
> add option to do better diags of startup configuration

> Key: HADOOP-8938
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8938
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: bin
> Affects Versions: 1.1.0, 2.0.2-alpha
> Reporter: Steve Loughran
> Priority: Minor
>
> HADOOP-8931 shows a symptom of a larger problem: we need better diagnostics of what all
the environment variables and settings going through the hadoop scripts to find out why something
isn't working.
> Ideally some command line parameter to the scripts (or even: a new environment variable)
could trigger more display of critical parameters.
