Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-5083:
--------------------------------------

> This is what the attached patch does. Review?

The patch looks generally good to me.  The change to 
conf/hadoop-site.xml.template seems accidental.  I think we should not default 
mapred.job.history.http.address to 0.0.0.0:50040 (as in the patch) but rather 
leave it empty, so that job history continues to run in the JobTracker by 
default.  We should also document that this is what's done if it is empty in 
hadoop-default.xml, and change the implementation so that an empty string here 
is interpreted as null.

> Optionally a separate daemon should serve JobHistory

> Currently the JobTracker serves the JobHistory to end-users off files 
> local-disk/hdfs. While running very large clusters with a large user-base 
> might result in lots of traffic for job-history which needlessly taxes the 
> JobTracker. The proposal is to have an optional daemon which handles serving 
> of job-history requests.
