Re: Persistent completed jobs status not showing in jobtracker UI

2009-02-19 Thread Bill Au
The idea behind persistent completed jobs status is that they are still
available in case of a jobtracker failure, right?  The job history is stored
as files under the log directory on the jobtracker node.  So they won't be
available when the jobtraker node fails.  For folks who have enabled this
feature, how do you retrieve the presistended completed jobs status?

 JobTracker web ui doesn't look at persistence storage after a restart. You
 can access the old jobs from job history. History link is accesible from web
 ui.
