Jeff Hammerbacher commented on HADOOP-4383: ------------------------------------------- Hey Todd, Leveraging a "core J2EE pattern" (http://java.sun.com/blueprints/corej2eepatterns/Patterns/ServiceLocator.html) to make services inherit from a common interface sounds like a great idea! It should simplify service management considerably. Go for it. Later, Jeff > Add standard interface/methods for all services to query IPC and HTTP > addresses and ports > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: HADOOP-4383 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-4383 > Project: Hadoop Core > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: dfs, mapred > Affects Versions: 0.20.0 > Reporter: Steve Loughran > Priority: Minor > > This is something I've ended up doing in subclasses of all the services: > methods to get at the IPC and HTTP port and addresses. Some services have > exported methods for this (JobTracker), others package-private member > variables (namenode), while others don't allow you to get at all the data > (Datanode keeps the http server private). > A uniform way to query any service for its live port and address values make > some aspects of service management much easier, such as feeding those values > in to http page monitoring tools. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
