        This call goes to Oozie directly to ask it about job status. It

        The current GET asks status of JobExecution from savanna-db. I
        think we can
        leave this call, it might be useful for external clients.

        [AL] Agree that GET shouldn't have side effect (or at least
        documented
        side effect). I think it could be generic PUT on
        '/job-executions/<job___execution_id>' which can refresh status
        or cancel
        job on hadoop side.


     From what I can tell, this endpoint is not exposed by the
    savannaclient or used directly from the horizon plugin.

    I imagine that having a "savanna-api, please go faster" call is
    enticing, but if we're not using it yet, let's make sure we have a
    well defined need before adding/keeping it.

[AL] I like to disable 'periodic' in dev environment. And this is the
only way to update job status without periodic.
So, I vote on adding it to savannaclient and to horizon.

IMHO, we should not be adding calls to the client or horizon app that would use this command. Instead we should have a well tuned periodic value that meets user expectations.

I propose we not expose this as part of the official Savanna API, and we look into other options for developer environments that allow for triggering a refresh of oozie information. Possibly when savanna-api gets a SIGUSR1 it should re-run all periodic tasks?

        REMOVE -
        @rest.get('/job-executions/<__job_execution_id>/cancel') - cancel
        job-execution - GET should not side-effect, currently unused,
        use DELETE /job/executions/<job___execution_id>
        ----
        Disagree. We have to leave this call. This methods stops job
        executing
        on the
        Hadoop cluster but doesn't remove all its related info from
        savanna-db.
        DELETE removes it completely.
        ----
        [AL] We need 'cancel'. Vote on generic PUT (see previous item).


    AFAICT, this is also not used. Where is the need?


[AL] I can easily imagine scenario where canceling is useful.

Both features give some benefit, but not extremely needed. So, it is a
question of priorities. My vote is on leaving both of them.

I don't disagree that we could come up with scenarios, but we should not add these to the Savanna API until we have concrete scenarios to implement in the horizon app or CLI.

Best,


matt
