Robert Joseph Evans commented on MAPREDUCE-2495:
------------------------------------------------
OK, Will have an updated patch shortly. But just to clarify. You want the
code to look like
} catch (InterruptedException e) {
LOG.info("Cleanup...",e);
//To force us to exit cleanly
running = false;
}
> The distributed cache cleanup thread has no monitoring to check to see if it
> has died for some reason

> The cleanup thread in the distributed cache handles IOExceptions and the like
> correctly, but just to be a bit more defensive it would be good to monitor
> the thread, and check that it is still alive regularly, so that the
> distributed cache does not fill up the entire disk on the node.
