-----------------------------------------

Hi Alan,

If you just want to get this behaviour as a fair scheduler user, the properties 
can be set in your mapred-site.xml. If you want to submit a patch so that this 
behaviour is the default, you have to edit mapred-default.xml, which is 
available in src or perhaps src/java in the mapreduce project.

> Provide a jobconf property for explicitly assigning a job to a pool

> A common use case of the fair scheduler is to have one pool per user, but 
> then to define some special pools for various production jobs, import jobs, 
> etc. Therefore, it would be nice if jobs went by default to the pool of the 
> user who submitted them, but there was a setting to explicitly place a job in 
> another pool. Today, this can be achieved through a sort of trick in the 
> JobConf:
> {code}
> <property>
>   <name>mapred.fairscheduler.poolnameproperty</name>
>   <value>pool.name</value>
> </property>
> <property>
>   <name>pool.name</name>
>   <value>${user.name}</value>
> </property>
> {code}
> This JIRA proposes to add a property called mapred.fairscheduler.pool that 
> allows a job to be placed directly into a pool, avoiding the need for this 
> trick.
