Good afternoon!

I want to change the location of the jvm.options file, but I'm having trouble. When I install  
`"ES_JVM_OPTIONS = / opt / elasticsearch / jvm.options"`  
in /usr/share/elasticsearch/bin/elasticsearch, everything works fine, but it's not very convenient when used. I would like to set this parameter in the init.d script, but whet I set:  
`"ES_JVM_OPTIONS = / opt / elasticsearch / jvm.options"`  
path didn`t change...  
How to set this option properly?  
I will be grateful for any help!
