-------------------------------------
Summary: History server should be more robust when cleaning old
jobs
Key: MAPREDUCE-5267
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-5267
Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: jobhistoryserver
Affects Versions: 2.0.4-alpha, 0.23.7
Reporter: Jason Lowe
Ran across a situation where an admin user had accidentally created a directory
in one of the date directories under /mapred/history/done/ that was not
readable by the historyserver user. That effectively prevented the history
server from cleaning any jobs from that date forward, as it hit an IOException
trying to scan the directory and that aborted the entire clean process.
The history server should localize IOException handling to the directory/file
being processed and move on to the next entry in the list rather than aborting
the entire cleaning process.
