Jothi Padmanabhan updated MAPREDUCE-157: ---------------------------------------- Attachment: mapred-157-prelim.patch Preliminary patch as requested by Doug. I got this to produce a history file in Json format (but only after commenting lots of code), so more useful for illustration than otherwise. My guess is that this should be fairly straight forward to port this to use Avro. > Job History log file format is not friendly for external tools. > --------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-157 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-157 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: Owen O'Malley > Assignee: Jothi Padmanabhan > Attachments: mapred-157-prelim.patch > > > Currently, parsing the job history logs with external tools is very difficult > because of the format. The most critical problem is that newlines aren't > escaped in the strings. That makes using tools like grep, sed, and awk very > tricky. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
