Milind Bhandarkar commented on HADOOP-2116:
-------------------------------------------
Does this mean that all the taskdir will again use the same partition ?
It would be opposite of HADOOP-2227, right ?
Thats not good performance-wise too, since all tasks will be using the same
spindle.
> Job.local.dir to be exposed to tasks

> Project: Hadoop
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: mapred
> Affects Versions: 0.14.3
> Environment: All
> Reporter: Milind Bhandarkar
> Assignee: Amareshwari Sri Ramadasu
> Fix For: 0.16.0

> Currently, since all task cwds are created under a jobcache directory, users
> that need a job-specific shared directory for use as scratch space, create
> ../work. This is hacky, and will break when HADOOP-2115 is addressed. For
> such jobs, hadoop mapred should expose job.local.dir via localized
> configuration.
