Vinod K V commented on HADOOP-4347: ----------------------------------- This problem is immediately visible in schedulers like CapacityTaskScheduler which lazily initialize jobs, and when jobs stay in PREP state for sufficient enough time for clients to kill them. > [mapred] Job client cannot kill jobs that are not initialized. > -------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-4347 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4347 > Project: Hadoop Core > Issue Type: Bug > Components: mapred > Reporter: Vinod K V > > Job client cannot kill a job that is not yet initialized, JobTracker silently > ignores the kill request (JobTracker.killJob(JobID)). Though the client > reports that the job is killed, the job still resides with JT and in fact, it > goes to running state and eventually finishes. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
