]
Tanping Wang updated HDFS-1738:
-------------------------------
Description:
Currently the tool, hdfs jmx returns null in case of an attribute value is not
available. A null pointer exception is thrown and the value of the rest
attributes are not printed. It makes more sense to return an empty string and
continue to print out the values for the rest attributes.
Example of current behavior
$ hdfs jmxget -server hostname.com -port 8004 -service
NameNode,name=NameNodeActivity
>>>>>>>>jmx name: name=NameNodeActivity,service=NameNode
tag.ProcessName=NameNode
java.lang.NullPointerException
at org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.tools.JMXGet.printAllValues(JMXGet.java:106)
at org.apache.hadoop.hdfs.tools.JMXGet.main(JMXGet.java:329)
