I am using MiniDFSCluster to do junit tests.
Now I just start and close the cluster, the junit runs green.
But I get this exception:

    What is happening is that hadoop is registering a jmx bean for monitoring. The first time hadoop starts, it registers the bean, but the second time hadoop starts, a bean with that name is already registered, resulting in the error above.

    Either you are not shutting down MiniDFSCluster properly, or you are starting it more than once, or there is a bug in MiniDFSCluster that causes it to not clean up properly.

    Are you calling cluster.shutdown() in a teardown method, as demonstrated here.
