Description

HADOOP-3483 addressed the issue where a dead cluster could be reallocated without having to issue warnings to users to clean up the directory themselves, provided the job is completed. It missed one case, where the job no longer exists in the Torque queue. When tried in that case, HOD fails with a bad error message:
ERROR - qstat error: exit code: 153 | signal: False | core False
CRITICAL - op: allocate hod-clusters/test 3 failed: <type 'exceptions.TypeError'> 'NoneType' object is unsubscriptable

This should be addressed to avoid user concerns.
