Sean Busbey commented on HBASE-16383:
-------------------------------------

The mapred version already uses JobConf. Take a look at 
[org.apache.hadoop.hbase.mapred.TableMapReduceUtil|https://github.com/apache/hbase/blob/rel/1.2.2/hbase-server/src/main/java/org/apache/hadoop/hbase/mapred/TableMapReduceUtil.java].

> TableMapReduceUtil should allow using JobConf, not Job

> I was recently trying to set up an MR job initialized with TableMapReduceUtil 
> to be ran by Oozie. Oozie offers a way to configure the job by providing an 
> implementation of org.apache.oozie.action.hadoop.OozieActionConfigurator. 
> Unfortunately, this interface is using org.apache.hadoop.mapred.JobConf, not 
> Job. I may be wrong but I believe that everything TableMapReduceUtil does 
> actually maps to the job configuration so it does not really need the Job 
> itself. If this is true, probably it would be more appropriate to use JobConf 
> in TableMapReduceUtil instead of Job? Or provide the methods for both.
