-----------------------------------
# I will polish this.

# I will polish this.
# --datanodes and --tasktrackers are already optional
# this is a bug fix. namenode-host is more widely used than namenode-url. It
is better to make the name changes. This script was only working internally in
RPM post installation script. Therefore, it does not break backward
compatibility in this name changes.
# I don't understand this.
# I will polish this.
# I will polish this.
# By default, hadoop tar ball ships with empty configuration files.
Consequencely, if --force flag is implemented, --force flag becomes mandatory
in order to run the script. This is counter productive to have this flag
because user will always use --force flag in order to run the setup script.
User will take this for granted and --force loses it's ability to safe guard
user from making mistakes.
# I will polish this.
# HADOOP_SECURE_DN_LOG_DIR is used in hadoop-daemon.sh
# I will polish this.
