Billie Rinaldi commented on YARN-2445: -------------------------------------- ATS is only designed to support aggregation. In other words, each new primary filter or related entity is added to what is already there for the entity. You cannot remove previously put information. In this example, I would expect oldprop and newprop both to appear. > ATS does not reflect changes to uploaded TimelineEntity > ------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: YARN-2445 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-2445 > Project: Hadoop YARN > Issue Type: Bug > Components: timelineserver > Reporter: Marcelo Vanzin > Priority: Minor > Attachments: ats2.java > > > If you make a change to the TimelineEntity and send it to the ATS, that > change is not reflected in the stored data. > For example, in the attached code, an existing primary filter is removed and > a new one is added. When you retrieve the entity from the ATS, it only > contains the old value: > {noformat} > {"entities":[{"events":[],"entitytype":"test","entity":"testid-ad5380c0-090e-4982-8da8-21676fe4e9f4","starttime":1408746026958,"relatedentities":{},"primaryfilters":{"oldprop":["val"]},"otherinfo":{}}]} > {noformat} > Perhaps this is what the design wanted, but from an API user standpoint, it's > really confusing, since to upload events I have to upload the entity itself, > and the changes are not reflected. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
