> Just had a delightfully odd failure case where every single IT that used a minicluster would timeout and fail.
> Turns out, if you happen to set a version on Accumulo (e.g. what I might do if I were testing locally and wanted to be isolated) which doesn't match what Version.java *wants* your version to be, an {{IllegalArgumentException}} is thrown which brings down all of the processes.
> The fun part is that this Version is used no-where, save the {{accumulo version}} command. We can and should fail gracefully -- there is no reason we should fail hard as we do now.
