Doug Cutting commented on MAPREDUCE-679: ---------------------------------------- Maybe we should file a separate issue to convert XML-generating JSPs to use an XML generator? As a new feature, this patch has no potential for breaking anything existing and is hence seems low-risk and yet provides some valuable functionality that would be good to have in 0.21. > XML-based metrics as JSP servlet for JobTracker > ----------------------------------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-679 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-679 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: jobtracker > Reporter: Aaron Kimball > Assignee: Aaron Kimball > Attachments: example-jobtracker-completed-job.xml, > example-jobtracker-running-job.xml, MAPREDUCE-679.2.patch, > MAPREDUCE-679.3.patch, MAPREDUCE-679.4.patch, MAPREDUCE-679.5.patch, > MAPREDUCE-679.6.patch, MAPREDUCE-679.patch > > > In HADOOP-4559, a general REST API for reporting metrics was proposed but > work seems to have stalled. In the interim, we have a simple XML translation > of the existing JobTracker status page which provides the same metrics > (including the tables of running/completed/failed jobs) as the human-readable > page. This is a relatively lightweight addition to provide some > machine-understandable metrics reporting. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
