Owen O'Malley commented on HADOOP-5478:
---------------------------------------
One thing that bothers me is that it requires a fork and we've already seen
that forks are expensive for our servers. We'll also need a timer if the fork
locks up to count as a failure.
> Provide a node health check script and run it periodically to check the node
> health status

> Hadoop must have some mechanism to find the health status of a node . It
> should run the health check script periodically and if there is any errors,
> it should black list the node. This will be really helpful when we run static
> mapred clusters. Else we may have to run some scripts/daemons periodically to
> find the node status and take it offline manually.
