> Prior to HADOOP-3412, job tracker could accept jobs without even offering service (i.e without {{JobTracker.offerService()}} being called). In such a case the job stays in JT's memory and job execution was guaranteed. With HADOOP-3412, {{JobTracker.submitJob()}} adds the job to JT's local structures and passes it to the scheduler. Scheduler gets initialized in {{JobTracker.offerService()}} and hence calling {{JobTracker.submitJob()}} before calling {{JobTracker.offerService()}} is actually a no-op. The job stays in JT's memory but never gets initialized. This is
> - backward incompatible
> - erroneous as there is a window where the jobtracker is ready to accept jobs, accepts them and never executes them.
