stack commented on HBASE-9878:
------------------------------
That sounds fine. Might be good to try another platform or two to be sure. I
thought elsewhere we were doing work to ensure we return errcodes on failure;
e.g. what is being undone in here and around start of the server daemons (Sorry
I don't have citations other than hearsay).

> AbstractHBaseTool catches any uncaught exceptions, logs them, and explicitly
> exists. I believe the reason for this is to explicitly set a non-0 exit code
> for the process. However, this means one cannot attach a debugger and break
> on uncaught exceptions.
