[jira] [Created] (HIVE-6480) Metastore server startup script ignores ENV settings

Adam Faris created HIVE-6480:
--------------------------------

             Summary: Metastore server startup script ignores ENV settings
                 Key: HIVE-6480
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HIVE-6480
             Project: Hive
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: HCatalog
    Affects Versions: 0.12.0
            Reporter: Adam Faris
            Priority: Minor


This is a minor issue with hcat_server.sh.  Currently the startup script has HADOOP_HEAPSIZE hardcoded to 2048, causing administrators to hand edit the script.  As hcat_server.sh reads hcat-env.sh, it makes sense to allow an administrator to define HADOOP_HEAPSIZE in hcat-env.sh (or other location like /etc/profile).

Secondly, there is no defined default for METASTORE_PORT in hcat_server.sh.  If METASTORE_PORT is missing, the metastore server fails to start.

I will attach a patch in my next update, once this jira is opened.
