Thanks for catching that [~linyiqun].
Copied the second 002 patch to 003. I would prefer to keep the patch history.

> If NameNode is unable to find plugins (specified in dfs.namenode.plugins), it 
> terminates abruptly with the following stack trace:
> {quote}
> Failed to start namenode.

> We should catch this exception, log a warning message and let it proceed, as 
> missing the third party library does not affect the functionality of 
> NameNode. We caught this bug during a CDH upgrade where a third party plugin 
> was not in the lib directory of the newer version of CDH.
