Luca Telloli commented on HADOOP-2925:
--------------------------------------

I patched the version 0.4.0 of Hadoop 0.16.0 and it worked flawlessly. 
Directory names do not clash under /mapredsystem which is a very useful step 
waiting for HADOOP-2899. 

Thanks,
Luca

> Currently, HOD generates the name of the mapredsystem directory using the 
> name /mapredsystem/hostname-of-jobtracker.
> In HADOOP-2899, we ran into a scenario where this naming convention could 
> lead to problems in case dfs permissions are enabled. While the bug should 
> ideally be addressed in Hadoop M/R, it will be better that HOD does not 
> generate names that can potentially clash across runs. One way to solve the 
> problem is to do what HOD already does for local log and temp directories - 
> name it using username.torque-job-id, which is going to be pretty unique 
> mostly.
