Hello All, I am running my job on a Hadoop Cluster and it fails due to insufficient Java Heap Memory.
I searched in google, and found that I need to add the following into the conf files: <property> <name>mapred.child.java.opts</name> <value>-Xmx2000m</value> </property> However, I don't want to request the administrator to change settings as it is a long process. Is there a way I can ask Hadoop to use more Heap Space in the Slave nodes without changing the conf files via some command line parameter? Thanks & regards Arko
