> This can happen when the jobtracker gets restarted more than once. In such 
> cases, the jobtracker depends on the jobhistory file for the next restart 
> count. If the new restart-count is not flushed to the file then there is a 
> fair chance that upon next restart, the jobtracker might schedule a new 
> attempt with an existing id. This can cause problems not only with the 
> side-effect files but also can cause the jobtracker to be in an inconsistent 
> state.
