Arun C Murthy commented on PIG-1829: ------------------------------------ bq. Any range in practical usage, 1 minute, 5 minutes, 1 hour, etc? It will help to set expectation with the user. It is number of jobs. Typically it's 1000, so that last 1k jobs are around to query status. > "0" value seen in PigStat's map/reduce runtime, even when the job is > successful > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: PIG-1829 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-1829 > Project: Pig > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 0.8.0 > Reporter: Thejas M Nair > Fix For: 0.9.0 > > > Pig runtime calls JobClient.getMapTaskReports(jobId) and > JobClient.getReduceTaskReports(jobId) to get statistics about numbers of > maps/reducers, as well as max/min/avg time of these tasks. But from time to > time, these calls return empty lists. When that happens pig is reports 0 > values for the stats. > The jobtracker keeps the stats information only for a limited duration based > on the configuration parameters mapred.jobtracker.completeuserjobs.maximum > and mapred.job.tracker.retiredjobs.cache.size. Since pig collects the stats > after jobs have finished running, it is possible that the stats for the > initial jobs are no longer available. To have better chances of getting the > stats, it should be collected as soon as the job is over. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
