Allen Wittenauer commented on HADOOP-13533:
-------------------------------------------
It was blank in prior versions of Hadoop. The goal of setting this to be not-blank and have
actual options was to improve the "out of box" experience, especially for those without pdsh
installed.
> User cannot set empty HADOOP_SSH_OPTS environment variable option

> Key: HADOOP-13533
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-13533
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: scripts
> Affects Versions: 3.0.0-alpha2
> Reporter: Albert Chu
> Assignee: Albert Chu
> Priority: Minor
>
> In hadoop-functions.sh in the hadoop_basic_init function there is this initialization
of HADOOP_SSH_OPTS:
> {noformat}
> HADOOP_SSH_OPTS=${HADOOP_SSH_OPTS:-"-o BatchMode=yes -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -o ConnectTimeout=10s"}
> {noformat}
> I believe this parameter substitution is a bug. While most of the environment variables
set in the function are generally required for functionality (HADOOP_LOG_DIR, HADOOP_LOGFILE,
etc.) I don't believe HADOOP_SSH_OPTS is one of them. If the user wishes to set HADOOP_SSH_OPTS
to an empty string (i.e. HADOOP_SSH_OPTS="") they should be able to. But instead, this is
requiring HADOOP_SSH_OPTS to always be set to something.
> So I think the
> {noformat}
> ":-"
> {noformat}
> in the above should be
> {noformat}
> "-"
> {noformat}
> Github pull request to be sent shortly.
