MR-279: refreshQueues leads to NPEs when used w/FifoScheduler
-------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: MAPREDUCE-2630
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-2630
             Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: mrv2
         Environment: All
            Reporter: Josh Wills
            Priority: Minor


The RM's admin service exposes a method refreshQueues that is used to update the queue configuration when used with the CapacityScheduler, but if it is used with the FifoScheduler, it will set the containerTokenSecretManager/clusterTracker fields on the FifoScheduler to null, which eventually leads to NPE. Since the FifoScheduler only has one queue that cannot be refreshed, the correct behavior is for the refreshQueues call to be a no-op.

I will attach a patch that fixes this by splitting the ResourceScheduler's reinitialize method into separate initialize/updateQueues methods.
