Robert Kanter commented on MAPREDUCE-5875:
------------------------------------------
I'm not sure if the new patch addresses the issue described in MAPREDUCE-5856.
If you don't have mapred-site.xml on the classpath, {{Limits}} will use the
default counters limits unless you call {{Limits.init(conf)}}, and I dont see
that happening when looking through the code path at {{jobClient.getJob(...)}};
unless I'm just not seeing it?
> Make Counter limits consistent conf across JobClient, MRAppMaster, and
> YarnChild

> Key: MAPREDUCE-5875
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-5875
> Project: Hadoop Map/Reduce
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: applicationmaster, client, task
> Affects Versions: 2.4.0
> Reporter: Gera Shegalov
> Assignee: Gera Shegalov
> Attachments: MAPREDUCE-5875.v01.patch, MAPREDUCE-5875.v02.patch

>
> Currently, counter limits "mapreduce.job.counters.*" handled by
> {{org.apache.hadoop.mapreduce.counters.Limits}} are initialized
> asymmetrically: on the client side, and on the AM, job.xml is ignored whereas
> it's taken into account in YarnChild.
> It would be good to make the Limits job-configurable, such that max
> counters/groups is only increased when needed. With the current Limits
> implementation relying on static constants, it's going to be challenging for
> tools that submit jobs concurrently without resorting to class loading
> isolation.
> The patch that I am uploading is not perfect but demonstrates the issue.
