Allen Wittenauer commented on HADOOP-1605:
------------------------------------------
I'm with Koji: I want to be able to disable this so that I can use SMF,
launchd, daemontools, etc, etc, etc. instead. Otherwise I'm left with
daemontools -> watcher -> namenode, which is overly complex. I'd much rather
use daemontools -> namenode.
> Automatic namenode restart when it encounters an error situation

> The namenode dies when it encounters an unexpected Runtime Exception.
> Instead, it can catch exceptions, clears up all its internal data structures
> and restarts. This was attempted in HADOOP-1486 earlier.
