Owen O'Malley commented on HADOOP-2213: --------------------------------------- I can't see a special state for the job tracker that means it is waiting for the system dir to be accessible. Don't forget that the system dir can be in any filesystem, not just hdfs. I think we should close this as won't fix. > Job submission gets Job tracker still initializing message while Namenode is > in safemode > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-2213 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-2213 > Project: Hadoop > Issue Type: Bug > Components: dfs, mapred > Reporter: lohit vijayarenu > Priority: Minor > > While namenode is in safemode, if a user submits a job they receive 'Job > tracker still initializing' exception.
