Amareshwari Sriramadasu commented on HADOOP-4638:
-------------------------------------------------
If the JobTracker fails to recover a job, it should do a job.kill()
(essentially kill the job). This will kill all the tips and do a finalizeJob().
Then patch doesnt need the change to do with updateTaskStatuses.
> Exception thrown in/from RecoveryManager.recover() should be caught and
> handled

> {{RecoveryManager.recover()}} can throw an exception while recovering a job.
> Since the {{JobTracker}} calls {{RecoveryManager.recover()}} from
> {{offerService()}}, any failure in recovery will cause {{JobTracker}} to
> crash. Ideally the {{RecoveryManager}} should log the failure encountered
> while recovering the job and continue.
