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

The one other case of re-reading the config file is for JT or NN failover. 
Suppose, the machine on which my JT was running dies, and I want to make the 
running TaskTrackers start communicating with the new JT on a different 
machine. This requires the TTs to re-read the config file.

> An external application (an Ops script, or some CLI-based tool) can change 
> the configuration of the Capacity Scheduler (change the capacities of various 
> queues, for example) by updating its config file. This application then needs 
> to tell the Capacity Scheduler that its config has changed, which causes the 
> Scheduler to re-read its configuration. It's possible that the Capacity 
> Scheduler may need to interact with external applications in other similar 
> ways.
