> We've seen folks who have been given Hadoop configuration to act as a client 
> accidentally type "hadoop namenode" and get things into a confused, or 
> incorrect state.  Most recently, we've seen data corruption when users 
> accidentally run extra secondary namenodes 
> (https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-2305).
> I'd like to propose that we introduce a configuration property, say, 
> "client.poison.servers", which, if set, disables the Hadoop daemons (nn, snn, 
> jt, tt, etc.) with a reasonable error message.  Hadoop administrators can 
> hand out/install configs that are on machines intended to just be clients 
> with a little less worry that they'll accidentally get run.
