----------------------------------------
bq. not somehow making clear about two cases of (RMs being down,client config
problems etc) vs (RMs in standby).
Fair point. I would like to understand what the user/admin would do differently
in the two cases. Seeing the proposed message, the admin would likely go
through all the RMs specified in the config and check their HA state. If it is
a config issue, the admin should realize it straight-away. If the RM is down or
in standby, the admin would likely do the needful to get it to active. I see
the value in making this simpler for the admin, but the config issue is likely
a one-time thing. Augmenting ClientRMService and other user-visible services to
have an Active/Standby mode is rather involved, and I want to make sure the
usability improvement is worth the effort and risk.

> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: resourcemanager
> Reporter: Dustin Cote
> Assignee: Ajith S
> Priority: Minor
>
> When submitting an application directly to a standby resource manager, the
> resource manager responds with 'Connection Refused' rather than indicating
> that it is a standby resource manager. Because the resource manager is aware
> of its own state, I feel like we can have the 8032 port open for standby
> resource managers and reject the request with something like 'Cannot process
> application submission from this standby resource manager'.
> This would be especially helpful for debugging oozie problems when users put
> in the wrong address for the 'jobtracker' (i.e. they don't put the logical RM
> address but rather point to a specific resource manager).
