Ravi Prakash resolved HADOOP-7822.
----------------------------------
    Resolution: Fixed

This has probably been fixed as part of the shell script rewrite

> Hadoop startup script has a race condition : this causes failures in 
> datanodes status and stop commands

>                 Key: HADOOP-7822
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-7822
>             Project: Hadoop Common
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 0.20.1, 0.20.2, 0.20.205.0
>            Reporter: Rahul Jain
>
> The symptoms are the following:
> a) start-all.sh is able to start both hadoop dfs and map-reduce processes, 
> assuming same grid nodes are used for dfs and map-reduce
> b) stop-all.sh stops map-reduce but fails to stop dfs processes (datanode 
> tasks on grid nodes)  
>     Instead, the warning message 'no datanode to stop' is seen for all data 
> nodes.
> c) The 'pid' files for datanode processes do not exist therefore the only way 
> to stop datanode processes is to manually execute kill commands.
> The root cause of the issue appears to be in hadoop startup scripts. 
> start-all.sh is really two parts:
> 1. start-dfs.sh : Start namenode and datanodes
> 2. start-mapred.sh: Jobtracker and task trackers.
> In this case, running start-dfs.sh did as expected and created the pid files 
> for different datanodes. However, start-mapred.sh script did end up forcing 
> another rsync from master to slaves, effectively wiping out the pid files 
> stored under "pid" directory.
