Description

The following command does not produce any failure info as to why the job failed.

$HADOOP_PREFIX/bin/hadoop jar $HADOOP_PREFIX/share/hadoop/mapreduce/hadoop-mapreduce-client-jobclient-${HADOOP_VERSION}-tests.jar sleep -Dmapreduce.jobtracker.split.metainfo.maxsize=10 -Dmapreduce.job.queuename=default -m 1 -r 1 -mt 1 -rt 1

To contrast, here is a command and associated command line output to show a failed job that gives the correct failiure info.
