Vinod K V commented on MAPREDUCE-861: ------------------------------------- Had a quick look at the patch and have a comment. The refresh feature along with the new config file is committed to trunk(0.21) itself (HADOOP-5396). So, I think there is no need for handling deprecation of the old _mapred-queue.xml_ properties. Deprecation is only needed for properties specified in old format in mapred-site.xml. With that, may be you should revise the class hierarchy of AbstractQueueBuilder. May be a single class would suffice. Thoughts? > Modify queue configuration format and parsing to support a hierarchy of > queues. > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MAPREDUCE-861 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-861 > Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce > Issue Type: Sub-task > Reporter: Hemanth Yamijala > Assignee: rahul k singh > Attachments: MAPREDUCE-861-1.patch, MAPREDUCE-861-2.patch > > > MAPREDUCE-853 proposes to introduce a hierarchy of queues into the Map/Reduce > framework. This JIRA is for defining changes to the configuration related to > queues. > The current format for defining a queue and its properties is as follows: > mapred.queue.<queue-name>.<property-name>. For e.g. > mapred.queue.<queue-name>.acl-submit-job. The reason for using this verbose > format was to be able to reuse the Configuration parser in Hadoop. However, > administrators currently using the queue configuration have already indicated > a very strong desire for a more manageable format. Since, this becomes more > unwieldy with hierarchical queues, the time may be good to introduce a new > format for representing queue configuration. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - You can reply to this email to add a comment to the issue online.
