                 Key: HADOOP-7947
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7947
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Wish
          Components: scripts
    Affects Versions: 0.24.0
            Reporter: Harsh J


Given that we are locked down to using only XML for configuration and most of 
the administrators need to manage it by themselves (unless a tool that manages 
for you is used), it would be good to also validate the provided config XML 
(*-site.xml) files with a tool like {{xmllint}} or maybe Xerces somehow, when 
running a command or (at least) when starting up daemons.

We should use this only if a relevant tool is available, and optionally be 
silent if the env. requests.
