Hudson commented on HADOOP-4124: -------------------------------- Integrated in Hadoop-trunk #611 (See [http://hudson.zones.apache.org/hudson/job/Hadoop-trunk/611/]) > Changing priority of a job should be available in CLI and available on the > web UI only along with the Kill Job actions > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-4124 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4124 > Project: Hadoop Core > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: mapred > Reporter: Hemanth Yamijala > Assignee: Hemanth Yamijala > Fix For: 0.19.0 > > Attachments: HADOOP-4124.patch, HADOOP-4124.patch, HADOOP-4124.patch, > HADOOP-4124.patch > > > Currently, a job's priority can only be changed from the job tracker web UI. > However, it is really similar (if not as destructive) as killing a job, in > the sense that is should not be exposed publicly. The use case for this kind > of restriction is where Hadoop is shared in production environments by > different users, and they should not be allowed to change another user's > priority. At the same time, it should be possible to still change a job's > priority in some manner, if a user is authorized to do so, and the CLI can > provide a way to do this, along with mechanisms introduced for ACLs in > HADOOP-3698. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
