Amar Kamat commented on HADOOP-4053: ------------------------------------ bq. 1. I'd expect jobCompleted() to be a no-op, and have jobRemoved() get called when the job is removed. I would expect {{jobRemoved()}} to be a no-op and {{jobComplete()}} to do what is currently done by {{jobRemoved()}}. For all the current schedulers, {{jobRemoved()}} and {{jobComplete()}} are essentially the same. {{jobRemoved()}} is important to schedulers for which the presence of a job in the memory makes a difference e.g, memory sensitive schedulers. For others the only thing that matters is the run-state of a job and hence it makes more sense to clean up completed jobs as soon as possible. > Schedulers need to know when a job has completed > ------------------------------------------------ > > Key: HADOOP-4053 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4053 > Project: Hadoop Core > Issue Type: Improvement > Affects Versions: 0.19.0 > Reporter: Vivek Ratan > Assignee: Amar Kamat > Fix For: 0.19.0 > > Attachments: HADOOP-4053-v1.patch > > > The JobInProgressListener interface is used by the framework to notify > Schedulers of when jobs are added, removed, or updated.
