[Hadoop-common-user] Problem in Getting Job Status

Hi All,

We are migrating from Hadoop 0.19.2 to Hadoop 0.20.203. The normal flow (
job posting / running ) works fine.  In one of the flow, we are required to
check Task Reports for a running Job to fetch its state.

In the older code (0.19.2)  we had following piece of code which does the
required tasks

runningJob is an instance of Job

TaskReport[] reports = jobClient.getMapTaskReports(
runningJob.getID());

Wanted to know how it will change in the newer version. I tried with

TaskReport[] reports = jobClient.getMapTaskReports((JobID)
runningJob.getJobID());

This did not work as there is no JobID is set in Job instance.

Requesting your assistance in this.

Let me know if any other details are required.

Thanks.

It is a bug in 0.20.203. You're hitting

It was finally backported in 0.20.204 now, so you may use that instead
as it has just released. Also, FWIW, the CDH3 stable distro has
carried that fix for over a year now.

I'd advise not using the new API though, it is marked unstable and has
some problems and missing components/features. Stick to the stable API
for 0.20.20x, IMHO.
