Arun, I'm don't know how to interpret the release schedule from the JIRA. It says that the patch targets 2.1.0 and it is checked into the trunk, does that mean it is likely to be rolled into the first Hadoop 2 GA or will it have to wait for another cycle? Thanks, John

But there are issues with it. I have two nodes, node1 and node2 in my cluster. And, my Application Master is trying to get 3 containers on node1, and 3 containers on node2 in that order. While trying to request on node1, it sometimes gives me those on node2, and vice verse. When I get a container on a different node than the one I need, I release it and make a fresh request. I am having to do like that forever to get a container on the node I need. Though the node I am requesting has enough resources, why does it keep giving me containers on the other node? How can I make sure I get a container on the node I want? Note: I am using the default scheduler, i.e. Capacity Scheduler.

I am working on a single node cluster, and I am giving the name of the single node I have in my cluster. Is there any specific format that I need to give for setHostName(), why is it not working...
