Port to 0.22 - Implement limits on per-job JobConf, Counters, StatusReport,
Split-Sizes
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: MAPREDUCE-3469
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-3469
Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Mahadev konar
Assignee: Mahadev konar
Fix For: 0.20.203.0
We have come across issues in production clusters wherein users abuse counters,
statusreport messages and split sizes. One such case was when one of the users
had 100 million counters. This leads to jobtracker going out of memory and
being unresponsive. In this jira I am proposing to put sane limits on the
status report length, the number of counters and the size of block locations
returned by the input split.
