----------------------------------

             Summary: Separate log4j environment variable from KAFKA_OPTS in 
kafka-run-class.sh
                 Key: KAFKA-637
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-637
             Project: Kafka
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 0.8.1
            Reporter: Chris Curtin
            Priority: Minor


The kafka-run-class.sh script has an environment variable for 'KAFKA_OPTS' 
which defines the log4j configuration file with other system variables.

By moving the log4j settings into their own variable we can set that 
configuration file without having to also include the system parameters. This 
way if the script changes in the next release our management scripts won't have 
(potentially) unexpected side effects.

We change the logging configuration file in the test environment so we can run 
multiple brokers on a single machine for testing. Without this option all the 
logs for all the brokers get jumbled together.
