Description

DEPRECATED: Use of this script to execute hdfs command is deprecated.
Instead use the hdfs command for it.

Unrecognized option: -jvm
Could not create the Java virtual machine.

The following chunk of code in hdfs script looks suspicious:

 if [[ $EUID -eq 0 ]]; then
    HADOOP_OPTS="$HADOOP_OPTS -jvm server $HADOOP_DATANODE_OPTS"
  else
    HADOOP_OPTS="$HADOOP_OPTS -server $HADOOP_DATANODE_OPTS"
  fi

I'm really not sure what was meant by it
