Jason Lowe commented on YARN-6177:
----------------------------------

The best effort setting was primarily targeting the scenario where the timeline 
server is down and not wanting jobs to fail as a result.  It wasn't intended to 
mask jar conflicts like this.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding option #1 from above, but we should not be changing 
the best-effort default value.  That's an incompatible and surprising change.  

When someone sets best-effort to true then they desire the timeline server to 
work but don't want transient errors to block the job's progress.  This case is 
not a transient error -- the timeline client is never going to work with that 
jar conflict in place.  Therefore I agree with [~gtCarrera9] that we should not 
mask this error.  If it's common then I think we should check for it and 
provide a useful error message stating the user needs to address the classpath 
conflict or disable the timeline client, but the error should still be fatal.
