Xuefu Zhang commented on PIG-5316:
----------------------------------
[~nkollar], while it might be just an placeholder, it's used to create staging
scratch or staging directories. I think we should follow the custom format of a
task id. You might want to check Pig code where this is set. As another
reference, you can find how Hive on Spark sets it in
{{HivePairFlatMapFunction.jara}}.
> Initialize mapred.task.id property for PoS jobs

> Some downstream systems may require the presence of {{mapred.task.id}}
> property (e.g. HCatalog). This is currently not set when Pig On Spark jobs
> are started. Let's initialise it.
