Miklos Szegedi commented on MAPREDUCE-6989:
-------------------------------------------

[~ctrezzo], thanks for the comment. I believe they can extend each other but 
they have slightly distinct functionality. This tool is rather a collector for 
multiple jars in the class path to a single tarball and it also uploads but 
that is just a auxiliary task. It could leverage the shared cache though not to 
upload a duplicate instance of the same jar. Please let me know, if I am 
missing something. Now that you mentioned, there is a need to delete the jar 
once no applications are using it. It would be very useful, if we could solve 
that with the shared cache.

> The proposal is to create a tool that collects all available jars in the 
> Hadoop classpath and adds them to a single tarball file. It then uploads the 
> resulting archive to an HDFS directory. This saves the cluster administrator 
> from having to set this up manually for Distributed Cache Deploy.
