Description

Current Process command-line args is very simple in master and Region Server.
There is a comment
// Process command-line args. TODO: Better cmd-line processing
// (but hopefully something not as painful as cli options).

So we still can use CLI http://commons.apache.org/cli/usage.html or someone from list of alternatives http://jopt-simple.sourceforge.net/

What is disadvantage of CLI ?
