Naganarasimha G R commented on YARN-2301: ----------------------------------------- Hi [~zjshen], I believe the existing working of bq. yarn container -list <appAttemptID> itself is not proper (wrt YARN-1794) and once all the data is taken from time line server it would make proper sense for the end user. End user should not bother its coming from AHS/Timeline/RM and result should be list of all containers for the given attempt or app ID. I have the code for the command bd.yarn container -list <appAttemptID/appID> but i feel it would not be complete until timeline integration is done and users of this command will again get confused if given with half feature So my pick would be to your second option as new jira i.e bq. *yarn container -list <appAttemptID/appID>* but if you see timeline server intergration will be delayed then we can discuss what part of the command could be taken and the behavior of it. Also i would like to fix YARN-1794-??show all containers when application is finished from AHS instead of no containers from RM?? (again here too . i would like to fix the bug after timeline integration, so that list of all containers for the given attempt or app ID irrespective of the app state ) Please provide your opinion. > Improve yarn container command > ------------------------------ > > Key: YARN-2301 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-2301 > Project: Hadoop YARN > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: Jian He > Assignee: Naganarasimha G R > Labels: usability > > While running yarn container -list <Application Attempt ID> command, some > observations: > 1) the scheme (e.g. http/https ) before LOG-URL is missing > 2) the start-time is printed as milli seconds (e.g. 1405540544844). Better to > print as time format. > 3) finish-time is 0 if container is not yet finished. May be "N/A" > 4) May have an option to run as yarn container -list <appId> OR yarn > application -list-containers <appId> also. > As attempt Id is not shown on console, this is easier for user to just copy > the appId and run it, may also be useful for container-preserving AM > restart. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
