Description David Knox 2015-06-08 17:31:17 EDT

Description of problem:
In this case, the customer would like to use options that
apply only at startup. The OS is RHEL 7 and the package in use is 7.0.54. They were using CATALINA_OPTS previously and it worked fine, but with the rebase we re-implemented all of the systemd service scripts and apparently this functionality was removed/forgotten.

the scripts used by systemd are completely different from the ones used previously on rhel-7/tomcat7. the ExecStart/Stop call different scripts

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
tomcat7 for rhel-7.0, 7.1, 7.2, & potentially 7.3

How reproducible:
Always -- Add a Java system property and start tomcat. tomcat will use CATALINA_OPTS and JAVA_OPTS both at start and stop. stopping tomcat could lead to errors e.g., if a port (like a jmx port), is opened. 

Actual results:
An error when stopping tomcat 

Expected results:
no error
