Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-5083:
--------------------------------------

> you do not want the JobTracker starting the stand-alone JobHistoryServer

When it's standalone, then it should certainly be started separately.  But I 
think, for simplicity and back-compatibility, the default behavior might be for 
it to continue to run within the JobTracker JVM.  We can add a main() routine, 
command line commands, etc. to run it separately and a config option to stop it 
from being run within the JobTracker JVM.


> Optionally a separate daemon should serve JobHistory

> Currently the JobTracker serves the JobHistory to end-users off files 
> local-disk/hdfs. While running very large clusters with a large user-base 
> might result in lots of traffic for job-history which needlessly taxes the 
> JobTracker. The proposal is to have an optional daemon which handles serving 
> of job-history requests.
