                 Key: HDFS-1977
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HDFS-1977
             Project: Hadoop HDFS
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Joey Echeverria
            Priority: Minor


The old version of the logging APIs didn't support logging stack traces by passing exceptions to the logging methods (e.g. Log.error()). A number of log statements make use of StringUtils.stringifyException() to get around the old behavior. It would be nice if this could get cleaned up to make use of the the logger's stack trace printing. This also gives users more control since you can configure how the stack traces are written to the logs.
