Hi, Is it possible to get the 'id' of the currently executing split or block from within the mapper? Using this block Id / split id, I want to be able to query the namenode to get the names of hosts having that block / spllit, and the actual path to the data.
I need this for some analytics that I'm doing. Is there a client API that allows doing this? If not, what's the best way to do this? Best, Deepak Nettem
