    Description

      If there is some problem in the configuration, Job history initialization fails. JobHistory#init catches the exception and disable the history. This leads to job history not working as expected. However administrators won't notice that there is some problem in the config due to which history got disabled, unless they see the logs. Better approach would be to not catch the exception and let Jobtracker fail to come up if there is error in initialization.
