Jobid creation is not required if the job failed because of unavailability of 
input path.Can input and output paths validation can be done before job ID 
creation step?

                 Key: MAPREDUCE-4130
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-4130
             Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: mrv2
            Reporter: Ramgopal N
            Priority: Minor


If the input splits cannot be computed because the input paths doesnt exist
Job is not submitted and error is thrown.But before that jobid is created which 
can be avoided.
The sequence is 
1)Output path validation
2)Jobid creation
3)Input splits computation

But if the sequence of steps is 1,3,2 ...unnecessary  jobid creation can be 
avoided
