Bill Havanki commented on ACCUMULO-1556:
----------------------------------------

ACCUMULO-1556-1.5.patch is the patch for 1.5.1-SNAPSHOT.

Differences:
- easymock is already in dependency management for 1.5.x
- IZooReaderWriter moved from server to fate, needed to fix unit test

> Initialize could use a better warning when HDFS dir is already populated

> When attempting to initialize Accumulo and the instance.dfs.dir is pointing at a directory in HDFS which has already been initialized, you get a very undescriptive warning message which doesn't actually say refer to the fact that this is an HDFS directory.
> {noformat}
> [util.Initialize] FATAL: It appears this location was previously initialized, exiting ... 
> {noformat}
> It would be better to be explicit and tell the user that their $instance.dfs.dir value already has been initialized in HDFS instead of leaving that up to the user to discern.
