Pradeep Kamath commented on PIG-948: ------------------------------------ In my opinion, pig should only print the jobid. Users of pig would most likely already be using the hadoop job UI and should be able to track down the job given the job id. Giving the job id I think achieves the original issue of relating pig script to the corresponding MR jobs. While constructing the url is not complicated, embedding it in pig code seems ugly since we will most likely not track the changes in this url until a user notices it is broken - giving just the job id is useful in itself I think. > [Usability] Relating pig script with MR jobs > -------------------------------------------- > > Key: PIG-948 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-948 > Project: Pig > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: impl > Reporter: Ashutosh Chauhan > Assignee: Ashutosh Chauhan > Priority: Minor > Attachments: pig-948.patch > > > Currently its hard to find a way to relate pig script with specific MR job. > In a loaded cluster with multiple simultaneous job submissions, its not easy > to figure out which specific MR jobs were launched for a given pig script.
