Tried a simple example job with Yahoo M45. The job fails for non-existence of a default queue.
Output is attached as below. From the Apache hadoop mailing list, found this post (specific to M45), that attacked this problem by setting the property Dmapred.job.queue.name=*myqueue* (http://web.archiveorange.com/archive/v/3inw3ySGHmNRR9Bm14Uv)
There is also documentation set for capacity schedulers, but I do not have write access to the files in conf directory, so I do not know how I can set the capacity schedulers there.
I am also posting this question on the general lists, just in case.
$hadoop jar /grid/0/gs/hadoop/current/hadoop-examples.jar pi 10 10000
