Hi, I have a configuration file (similar to hadoop-site.xml) and I want to include this file as a resource while running Map-Reduce jobs. Similarly, I want to add a jar file that is required by Mappers and Reducers
ToolRunner.run( ...) allows me to do this easily, my question is can I add these files permanently? I am running a lot of different Map-Reduce jobs in a loop, so is there a way I can add these files once and subsequent jobs need not to add them ? Also, if I don't implement Tool and don't use ToolRunner.run, but call Configuration.addresource( ), then will the parameters defined in my configuration file available in mappers and reducers ? Thanks, Taran
