Hemanth Yamijala commented on MAPREDUCE-1778:
---------------------------------------------

bq. For #2, I think maybe we can try and create a dummy temp file. Is there a 
better way than this? Did not find any helper api in FileSystem.

If you had the FileStatus for the directory, you could use FsPermission to 
check this, no ? But if you don't have it, you'd need an additional RPC for the 
same.

> If {mapred.job.tracker.persist.jobstatus.dir} points to an unwritable 
> location or mkdir of {mapred.job.tracker.persist.jobstatus.dir} fails, then 
> CompletedJobStatusStore silently ignores the failure and disables 
> CompletedJobStatusStore. Ideally the JobTracker should bail out early 
> indicating a misconfiguration.
