[jira] [Commented] (MAPREDUCE-111) JobTracker.getSystemDir throws NPE if it is called during intialization

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-111?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13082252#comment-13082252 ]

------------------------------------------

Hi Amreshwari,

This issue seems to be invalid to me as, the constructor of JobTracker will make sure that the FileSystem is initialized i.e. the constructor takes the full responsibility of initializing the FileSystem.

The initialization is in an infinite loop which will make sure FileSystem is not null.

> It should check if fileSystem is null and throw IllegalStateException, as in getFilesystemName method.
