Vinod K V commented on MAPREDUCE-1688:
--------------------------------------

Clearly, one job's notification shouldn't affect another's - so we will need 
separate threads for each notification(from a thread pool?). We should also put 
caps on the {{retry.attempts}} and {{retry.interval}}. We should also log when 
a notification is finally sent out successfully.

> A failing retry'able notification in JobEndNotifier can affect notifications 
> of other jobs.

> The JobTracker puts all the notification commands into a delay-queue.  It has 
> a single thread that loops through this queue and sends out the 
> notifications.  When it hits failures with any notification which is 
> configured to be retired via {{job.end.retry.attempts}} and 
> {{job.end.retry.interval}}, the notification is queued back again. A single 
> notification with sufficiently large number of configured retries and which 
> consistently fails will affect other notifications in the queue.
