Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-16044:
-----------------------------------------
This is a silly question, but why is UnknownHostException being retried?
Because JVMs do have a history of caching negative DNS lookup results. Looking
at the latest javadocs, {{networkaddress.cache.negative.ttl}} is set to 10s, so
it will eventually come up, but you do have to trust DNS to be updating its
records
Elsewhere i the code we're just treating this as unrecoverable. Which may not
be correct action in a world of dynamicness...but if we do start changing this
policy, we should think about doing it consistently everywhere (including HA
failover events)
