Jing Zhao created MAPREDUCE-6248: ------------------------------------ Summary: Persist DistCp job id in the staging directory Key: MAPREDUCE-6248 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-6248 Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce Issue Type: Improvement Components: distcp Reporter: Jing Zhao Assignee: Jing Zhao
Currently the DistCp is acting as a tool and the corresponding MapReduce Job is created and used inside of its {{execute}} method. It is thus difficult for external services to query its progress and counters. It may be helpful to persist the job id into a file inside its staging directory. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
