Robert Kanter commented on MAPREDUCE-5856:
------------------------------------------

Another way of looking at this: if I write the following code in my program:
{code:java}
Configuration conf = new Configuration();
conf.set(...);  // Set a bunch of properties or load from some files
JobClient client = new JobClient(conf);
{code}
The expected behavior is that everything {{client}} does will use the 
properties I set in {{conf}}.  If it doesn't, then that's a bug.

> Counter limits always use defaults even if JobClient is given a different 
> Configuration

> If you have a job with more than the default number of counters (i.e. > 120), 
> and you create a JobClient with a Configuration where the default is 
> increased (e.g. 500), then JobClient will throw this Exception:
> {noformat}
> org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.counters.LimitExceededException: Too many 
> counters: 121 max=120
> {noformat}
