Amareshwari Sriramadasu commented on HADOOP-4236:
-------------------------------------------------

bq. At present, calling JIP.kill() will just mark the job for killing, but job 
is truly not killed completely. A job is completely killed only when 
JIP.terminateJob()) is called on it, which does things like logging to 
JobHistory and marking JobStatus as killed. Currently, this method isn't called 
until a clean-up task is scheduled and runs to completion, but for 
uninitialized jobs there are no clean-up tasks and so job-kill remains 
incomplete for ever.

This will be fixed in HADOOP-4261

> JobTracker.killJob() fails to kill a job if the job is not yet initialized
