> On a couple of occasions we have seen the JobTracker not being able to handle 
> job recovery well, and leading to cluster downtime after a restart. The 
> current design for handling job recovery is complex and prone to corner cases 
> not being handled well enough. In retrospect, it seems like the transaction 
> log based approach as was proposed on HADOOP-3245 
> (http://tinyurl.com/luh9hb), would have been a better/simpler model. However, 
> that is a big project, and it seems for the medium term, just handling job 
> re-submissions after a restart is a good tradeoff. That is, the JobTracker 
> after getting restarted, will resubmit all jobs that were running in its past 
> life. They will all start from the beginning (downside is completed tasks 
> will reexecute). In the long term, the transaction log model or some variant 
> of that should be pursued.
> Thoughts/comments welcome.
