Key: HADOOP-6249 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6249 Project: Hadoop Common Issue Type: Bug Components: filecache Affects Versions: 0.20.0 Reporter: Sreekanth Ramakrishnan Currently {{org.apache.hadoop.filecache.DistributedCache.getLocalCache(URI, Configuration, Path, FileStatus, boolean, long, Path, boolean)}} allows only one {{TaskRunner}} thread in TT to localize {{DistributedCache}} across jobs. Current way of synchronization is across baseDir this has to be changed to lock on the same baseDir. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
