Karthik Kambatla commented on MAPREDUCE-5418: --------------------------------------------- bq. But AHS is on the way, so JHS could just poll AHS? +1. Even if we try to fix it some other way before AHS is ready to be used, we should update it to use the AHS. > JobHistoryServer has no information about applications if the MR-AM crashes > --------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-5418 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-5418 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Bug > Components: jobhistoryserver, mr-am > Affects Versions: 2.0.5-alpha > Reporter: Karthik Kambatla > Priority: Critical > Attachments: JHS-web-ui.png, RM-web-ui.png > > > Currently, the AM writes the job-specific information to HDFS only after it > finishes; the JHS needs this info to display anything. If the AM fails, this > info is not written and the JHS fails to display anything for that job. > While JHS on top of AHS might address this issue, it would be nice to have a > solution in the interim. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
