> The bin/start-hbase.sh script returns an exit status indicating success, and
> emits the message : 'starting master, logging to ...' , even though the
> master failed to start:
> $ ./bin/start-hbase.sh
> starting master, logging to
> /home/jason/3P/hbase-0.94.13/logs/hbase-jason-master-jvds.out
> $ echo $?
> 0
> # ^- this indicates successful exit status on Linux / UNIX-like systems
> $ egrep 'start master|RuntimeException' logs/hbase-jason-master-jvds.log
> 2013-11-13 14:15:28,309 ERROR
> org.apache.hadoop.hbase.master.HMasterCommandLine: Failed to start master
> java.lang.RuntimeException: Failed suppression of fs shutdown hook:
> Thread[Thread-27,5,main]
> The start-base.sh script should IMHO in the above scenario emit a message
> like
> 'Failed to start the hbase master: java.lang.RuntimeException: Failed
> suppression of fs shutdown hook'
> and return a non-zero exit status.
