------------------------------------

Hi [~linyiqun]

Thanks for the quick feedback. In my opinion, it is necessary to print stack 
trace when error happens because that helps to debug. In some cases, user may 
not have access to server nodes (to read logs) at all. In that case if only a 
short message given, it is impossible to figure out what was the issue.

I did a quick check on other HDFS shell code, there are mostly 2 ways to handle 
exceptions: 1) Print out to console like this patch; 2) Log in the debug 
message when debug is enabled; Since {{Shell.java}} doesn't have LOG instance 
yet, I simply uses #1 approach. Please let me know if this makes sense to you.

Thanks

> There are multiple try-catch places swallow exceptions when transforming some 
> other exception to {{OzoneRestClientException}}. As a result, when client 
> runs into such code paths, they lose track of what was going on which makes 
> the debug extremely difficult. See below example
> {code}
> bin/hdfs oz -listBucket  http://15oz1.fyre.ibm.com:9864/vol-0-84022 -user wwei
> Command Failed : {"httpCode":0,"shortMessage":"Read timed 
> out","resource":null,"message":"Read timed 
> out","requestID":null,"hostName":null}
> {code}
> the returned message doesn't help much on debugging where and how it reads 
> timed out.
