> The bin/start-hbase.sh script returns an exit status indicating success, and emits the message : 'starting master, logging to ...' ,  even though the master failed to start:
>     $ ./bin/start-hbase.sh
>     starting master, logging to /home/jason/3P/hbase-0.94.13/logs/hbase-jason-master-jvds.out
>     $ echo $?
>     0
> #  ^- this indicates successful exit status on Linux / UNIX-like systems
>     $ egrep 'start master|RuntimeException' logs/hbase-jason-master-jvds.log 
> 2013-11-13 14:15:28,309 ERROR org.apache.hadoop.hbase.master.HMasterCommandLine: Failed to start master
> java.lang.RuntimeException: Failed suppression of fs shutdown hook: Thread[Thread-27,5,main]
> The start-base.sh script should IMHO in the above scenario emit a message like 
> 'Failed to start the hbase master:   java.lang.RuntimeException: Failed suppression of fs shutdown hook'
> and return a non-zero exit status.
