[jira] Commented: (HADOOP-5389) NullPointerException in fairshare PoolManager

["Vinod K V (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-5389?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12678630#action_12678630 ] 

Vinod K V commented on HADOOP-5389:
-----------------------------------

If mapred.fairscheduler.allocation.file is not set to anything, then this exception will be seen once in the logs, but scheduler should continue to function normally. You should not see any other side effects because of this.  Nige, can you confirm this?
