nijel created HBASE-12021:
-----------------------------

             Summary: Hbase shell does not respect the HBASE_OPTS set by the user in console
                 Key: HBASE-12021
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-12021
             Project: HBase
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: shell
    Affects Versions: 0.98.5
            Reporter: nijel
            Priority: Minor


Before starting hbase shell i have set some -D parameters reauired for kerberos authentication in HBASE_OPTS (there is no other variables are used when shell is executed). But while invoking Hbase shell it is not used.

The code in hbase-env.sh is 
export HBASE_OPTS="-XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC"

This will overwrite the the value set in the console

There can be 2 options to support this
1. Append the HBASE_OPTS like HBASE_OPTS="$HBASE_OPTS -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC".
2. Have a new variable (HBASE_CLIENT_OPTS) which is can be appended in shell section of "hbase" file
