Sunil G commented on MAPREDUCE-5870: ------------------------------------ Hi [~jlowe] and [~eepayne] Thank you very much for the comments. Yes. Option 2 will be helpful to cover the existing functionality. And Priority is logically a part of JobStatus, so its good to keep that maximum possible way. However, if AM can get to know the Application Priority, is there any other advantage AM will have other than updating JobStatus. Still its good to do this way as we can avoid 2 RPC calls during every status query. > Support for passing Job priority through Application Submission Context in > Mapreduce Side > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-5870 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-5870 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: client > Reporter: Sunil G > Assignee: Sunil G > Attachments: 0001-MAPREDUCE-5870.patch, 0002-MAPREDUCE-5870.patch, > 0003-MAPREDUCE-5870.patch, 0004-MAPREDUCE-5870.patch, > 0005-MAPREDUCE-5870.patch, 0006-MAPREDUCE-5870.patch, Yarn-2002.1.patch > > > Job Prioirty can be set from client side as below [Configuration and api]. > a.
