> Hello,
> I'm investigating running pig in an environment where various parts of the file:// filesystem are available on all nodes. I can tell hadoop to use a file:// file system location for it's default, by seting fs.default.name=file://path/to/shared/folder
> However, this creates issues for Pig, as Pig writes it's job information in a folder that it assumes is a shared FS (eg DFS). However, in this scenario /tmp is not shared on each machine.
> So /tmp should either be configurable, or Hadoop should tell you the actual full location set in fs.default.name?
> Straightforward solution is to make "/tmp/" a property in src/org/apache/pig/impl/io/FileLocalizer.java init(PigContext)
> Any suggestions of property names?
