{noformat}
The real impact here is we are trying to launch a number of new nodes (via
chef) with pre-configured hostname (and among other variables). The additional
hostname (but not yet alive) made no impact to the existing nodes, which is
good (looks like we only catch the ConfigurationException in the watcher
thread, but not on the initial start); but it causes new node fail to start.
(Pretty sure if we restart an existing one, it will fail too).
