Zhijie Shen commented on YARN-304:
----------------------------------
Hm..., thanks for pointing this out, Json! Without assuming AHS is always
available with RM, the plugin seems to be still necessary, because
unavailability of AHS can be considered as the original scenario when AHS
feature is not there.
> RM Tracking Links for purged applications needs a long-term solution
> --------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: YARN-304
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/YARN-304
> Project: Hadoop YARN
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Affects Versions: 3.0.0, 0.23.5
> Reporter: Derek Dagit
> Assignee: Zhijie Shen
>
> This JIRA is intended to track a proper long-term fix for the issue described
> in YARN-285.
> The following is from the original description:
> As applications complete, the RM tracks their IDs in a completed list. This
> list is routinely truncated to limit the total number of application
> remembered by the RM.
> When a user clicks the History for a job, either the browser is redirected to
> the application's tracking link obtained from the stored application
> instance. But when the application has been purged from the RM, an error is
> displayed.
> In very busy clusters the rate at which applications complete can cause
> applications to be purged from the RM's internal list within hours, which
> breaks the proxy URLs users have saved for their jobs.
> We would like the RM to provide valid tracking links persist so that users
> are not frustrated by broken links.
