Hello, I'm using Hadoop 0.20.1, I submitted a job using the org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.Job approach e.g.
org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.Job _job job_.submit(); However, I would like to,from another Java program, monitor this job: 1) get map/reduce progress 2) get counters 3) status 4) and the ability to join i.e wait for completion. say jd = "job_201003190003_1855" org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.JobID jid = org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.JobID.forName(jd); org.apache.hadoop.mapred.JobClient jclient = new org.apache.hadoop.mapred.JobClient(); Now, what? http://hadoop.apache.org/common/docs/r0.20.1/api/org/apache/hadoop/mapred/JobClient.html#getJob(org.apache.hadoop.mapred.JobID) says, I should use 1. public RunningJob getJob(JobID jobid) but, in my installation of hadoop 0.20.1, i do not have such a method. 2. Even if I could, runningjob.getCounters() returns the old deprecated Counters. Is this compatible with the new mapreduce code? Is there any org.apache.mapreduce code that given the JobId, I can monitor and wait for completion for the job? I can get a org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.JobContext with the Job ID, but there should be a way to get the Job. One option, is to serialize the job_ variable and load it in later(not my first choice) Thanks State: RUNNING Started: Fri Mar 19 00:03:40 EDT 2010 Version: 0.20.1, r810220 Compiled: Tue Sep 1 20:55:56 UTC 2009 by oom Identifier: 201003190003
