Vinod K V commented on MAPREDUCE-2089:
--------------------------------------

A related point I noted is that the Child task needs the token file 
irrespective of whether security is turned on or off. This can be skipped for 
no-security, can we do that here too?

> JobToken should be passed over RPC

> JobToken file is currently created by the JobTracker, and stored in the HDFS. 
> Later on, the TaskTrackers pull that file from the HDFS as part of job 
> localization. The HDFS operations can be avoided if the the jobToken file is 
> passed over RPC (Jobclient -> JobTracker -> TaskTrackers).
