Nick Dimiduk commented on HBASE-10061:
--------------------------------------
Why is ignoring the missing jar a good idea? The current implementation will
fail at job preparation time when a jar is missing. This patch will cause the
failure to happen after the job is submitted, when a class from the missing jar
are used. Is better to fail earlier, no?
> TableMapReduceUtil.findOrCreateJar calls updateMap(null, ) resulting in
