Description

When the JobTracker is initializing and trying to connect to the NameNode, it shuts itself down if the NameNode is unreachable for more than one iteration of the connect loop. It can be easily reproduced if the JobTracker is started before the NameNode is started. The JobTracker will shut itself down in a few seconds. The problem seems to be with adding a shutdown hook in the FileSystem in the case where the same hook has been added before.
