> I've been deploying MiniDFSCluster for some testing, and while using it/looking through the code I made some notes of where there are issues and improvement opportunities. This is mostly minor as its a test tool, but a risk of synchronization problems is there and does need addressing; the rest are all feature creep. 
> Field {{nameNode}} should be marked as volatile as the shutdown operation can be in a different thread than startup. Best of all, 
> add synchronized methods to set and get the field, as well as shutdown.
> The data dir is set from from System Properties.
> {code}
>     base_dir = new File(System.getProperty("test.build.data", "build/test/data"), "dfs/");
>     data_dir = new File(base_dir, "data");
> {code}
> This is done in {{formatDataNodeDirs()}} {{corruptBlockOnDataNode()}} and  the constructor.
> Improvement: have a test property in the conf file, and only read the system property if this is unset. This will enable
>  multiple MiniDFSClusters to come up in the same JVM, and handle shutdown/startup race conditions better, and avoid the
>  "java.io.IOException: Cannot lock storage build/test/data/dfs/name1. The directory is already locked." messages
> Messages should log to the commons logging and not {{System.err}} and {{System.out}}. This enables containers to catch and stream better, 
> and include more diagnostics such as timestamp and thread Id
> Class could benefit from a method to return the FS URI, rather than just the FS. This currently has to be worked around with some tricks involving a cached configuration
> {{waitActive()}} could get confused if "localhost" maps to an IPv6 address. Better to ask for 127.0.0.1 as the hostname; Junit
> test runs may need to be set up to force in IPv4 too.
> {{injectBlocks}} has a spelling error in the IOException, "SumulatedFSDataset" is the correct spelling
