             Summary: F3A init hangs if you try to connect while the system is 
offline
                 Key: HADOOP-14551
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-14551
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: Sub-task
          Components: fs/s3
    Affects Versions: 2.9.0
            Reporter: Steve Loughran
            Priority: Minor


F3A init hangs if you try to connect while the system is offline (that is: the 
nost of the s3 endpoint is unknown)

Assumption: unknown host exception is considered recoverable & client is 
spinning for a long time waiting for it.

I think we can conclude that unknown host is unrecoverable: if DNS is in 
trouble, you are doomed.

Proposed: quick lookup of endpoint addr, fail with our wiki diagnostics error 
on any problem.
I don't see any cost in doing this, as it will guarantee that the endpoint is 
cached in the JVM ready for the AWS client connection. If it can't be found, 
we'll fail within 20+s with something meaningful.

Noticed during a test run: laptop wifi off; all NICs other than loopback are 
inactive.
