Hi Mohit " mapred.tasktracker.reduce(map).tasks.maximum " means how many reduce(map) slot(s) you can have on each tasktracker.
"mapred.job.reduce(maps)" means default number of reduce (map) tasks your job will has. To set the number of mappers in your application. You can write like this: *configuration.setNumMapTasks(the number you want);* Chen Actually, you can just use configuration.set() On Fri, Mar 9, 2012 at 6:42 PM, Mohit Anchlia <mohitanch...@gmail.com>wrote: > What's the difference between mapred.tasktracker.reduce.tasks.maximum and > mapred.map.tasks > ** > I want my data to be split against only 10 mappers in the entire cluster. > Can I do that using one of the above parameters? >
