When log file is actively writing with log4j appender, and fileTailingAdaptor 
is behind.  There is a possibility that restart the java program might stop log 
file streaming.

Here is an example of what could go wrong:

04:01 Shutdown Name Node.
04:01 Terminator Thread kick in and streaming the remaining log.
04:02 Name Node Started up
04:03 Register of namenode log file failed because it is already streaming.
04:20 Terminator Thread finished the log file, unregister name node log for 
streaming.
