> The HBase Shell wiki page http://wiki.apache.org/hadoop/Hbase/Shell states that there is a command line switch {{--master=MASTER}} to specify a remote hbase master to connect to. This command line option does, however, not exist. Instead, in order to connect to a remote cluster, the user has to overwrite the shell variable {{$HBASE_CONFIG_DIR}} with the path to the remote cluster's configuration files that have to be locally available.
> A command line switch would be better suited for this, since the user/developer then would not have to write a XML config script.
