> We want to have an ability to pause task scheduling in JobTracker.
> The idea is: make job tracker still accept new jobs, but delay their running and do not schedule any new tasks from the currently running jobs.
> It will help for example restarting the DFS cluster without affecting jobs: pause execution, restart the DFS, running tasks will fail, but will not be scheduled until the execution is resumed, so the job does not fail.
> In general it should help fix non MR problems (DFS, network, etc.) while not failing running jobs and keep accepting new ones.
> What do people think of the general idea?
