Hi In a multi-node setup, I am invoking a number external apps, through Runtime.getRuntime.exec from rdd.map function, and would like to track their completion status. Evidently, such calls spawn a separate thread, which is not tracked by the standalone scheduler, i.e., reduce or collect are called prior to completion of these tasks. I am wondering if :
1- there is way to delay calls to reduce/collect, till their respective external app threads are completed 2- and if not, is it possible to query the node id and pid of such threads Cheers, [http://www.cisco.com/web/europe/images/email/signature/logo05.jpg] Nastooh Avessta ENGINEER.SOFTWARE ENGINEERING nave...@cisco.com Phone: +1 604 647 1527 Cisco Systems Limited 595 Burrard Street, Suite 2123 Three Bentall Centre, PO Box 49121 VANCOUVER BRITISH COLUMBIA V7X 1J1 CA Cisco.com<http://www.cisco.com/> [Think before you print.]Think before you print.
