Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-3618:
--------------------------------------

Shouldn't this be implemented using a RetryPolicy?

> JobClient should keep on retrying if the jobtracker is still initializing

> When the user submits the job while the jobtracker is still initializing, the 
> jobclient comes out with an exception. ideally the jobclient should keep on 
> retrying until the jobtracker is up and ready. This will also take care of 
> HADOOP-3289.
