Pradeep Kamath updated PIG-1323:
--------------------------------

        Status: Resolved  (was: Patch Available)
    Resolution: Invalid

There is already a hadoop property "mapred.task.id" which is set to the 
map/reduce task id in the backend and is not set in the front end which can be 
used to figure this out. Hence it is best not to introduce new properties in 
the configuration for this purpose.

> Communicate whether the call to LoadFunc.setLocation is being made in 
> hadoop's front end or backend

> Loaders which interact with external systems like a metadata server may need 
> to know if the LoadFunc.setLocation call happens from the frontend (on the 
> client machine) or in the backend (on each map task). The Configuration in 
> the Job argument to setLocation() can contain this information.
