------------------------------------------

I like Amar's proposal. It helps administration as well. Many-a-times when we 
restart the jobtracker, we would like all task-trackers to check in before the 
job-tracker starts running jobs. HDFS has something called "safe-mode" that is 
automatically triggered when the namenode restarts. A similar thing wold be 
very helpful for the JobTracker. IT allows an administrator to restart a 
cluster, and then restart other pieces of software (e.g. etl pipelines) before 
opening the cluster to run jobs. I would like to open a seperate JIRA for doing 
this one.

> Provide ability to persist running jobs (extend HADOOP-1876)

> This could probably extend the work done in HADOOP-1876. This feature can be 
> applied for things like jobs being able to survive jobtracker restarts.
