Nelson Paul commented on HADOOP-8777: ------------------------------------- I'm working on a different aspect that is, trying to run a job(jar file) in a remote server using a Java program. Currently am doing this using the SSH method and parse the output stream(console) to read the job id. Hadoop can provide an API for retrieving job id on executing a job(jar). > Retrieve job id on execution of a job > ------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-8777 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-8777 > Project: Hadoop Common > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Nelson Paul > Priority: Minor > > A method to retrieve the job id on submitting the job (using a JAVA client > program) will do a lot. It will be easier to track the job if the job id and > job can be linked in some way. Currently there is no direct way to identify > the job id of a particular job. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
