Jobtracker continues even if History initialization fails
---------------------------------------------------------
Key: MAPREDUCE-881
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-881
Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Sharad Agarwal
If there is some problem in the configuration, Job history initialization
fails. JobHistory#init catches the exception and disable the history. This
leads to job history not working as expected. However administrators won't
notice that there is some problem in the config due to which history got
disabled, unless they see the logs. Better approach would be to not catch the
exception and let Jobtracker fail to come up if there is error in
initialization.
