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

Hi Amar, 

I have a couple of questions about the history server:

1. If a job is completed and retired, and then the JT as well as the History 
Server restarts. Can a user get to the logs of a job that was completed earlier?

2. Does the History Server keep some sort of an persistent index into the 
completed/failed jobs? 

> Optionally a separate daemon should serve JobHistory

> Currently the JobTracker serves the JobHistory to end-users off files 
> local-disk/hdfs. While running very large clusters with a large user-base 
> might result in lots of traffic for job-history which needlessly taxes the 
> JobTracker. The proposal is to have an optional daemon which handles serving 
> of job-history requests.
