Sangjin Lee created YARN-3981: --------------------------------- Summary: support timeline clients not associated with an application Key: YARN-3981 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-3981 Project: Hadoop YARN Issue Type: Sub-task Components: timelineserver Affects Versions: YARN-2928 Reporter: Sangjin Lee
In the current v.2 design, all timeline writes must belong in a flow/application context (cluster + user + flow + flow run + application). But there are use cases that require writing data outside the context of an application. One such example is a higher level client (e.g. tez client or hive/oozie/cascading client) writing flow-level data that spans multiple applications. We need to find a way to support them. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
