Allen Wittenauer commented on MAPREDUCE-1288:
---------------------------------------------
What happens in the case that the archive file changes in flight. For example,
I submit a job using that archive. While my job is running, I notice a bug,
remove the old cache file, push a new one to hdfs, and then launch a new
invocation of my job. Would the new job get the old cache file because the old
job is still running?
> DistributedCache localizes only once per cache URI

> As part of the file localization the distributed cache localizer creates a
> copy of the file in the corresponding user's private directory. The
> localization in DistributedCache assumes the key as the URI of the cachefile
> and if it already exists in the map, the localization is not done again. This
> means that another user cannot access the same distributed cache file. We
> should change the key to include the username so that localization is done
> for every user.
