Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-3437:
--------------------------------------
If mapred.job.tracker=local, then the JobTracker class should not be used, but
rather LocalRunner. This logic is in JobClient. There is no corresponding
server-side logic, since, when mapred.job.tracker=local, it is assumed that you
are not starting any server daemons.
What do you expect to happen here?
> mapred.job.tracker default value/docs appear out of sync with code
