[jira] Commented: (HADOOP-6695) Job Tracker should be able to
refresh classpath without restarting
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6695?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12855751#action_12855751 ]
Ted Yu commented on HADOOP-6695:
--------------------------------
One possibility is for JobClient to pass its effective CLASSPATH, e.g. through (a new) mapred.job.classpath JobConf property, to JobTracker. JobTracker examines this classpath against its classpath to find new jars and put them into DistributedCache.
The benefit is that when user adds new jars to HADOOP_CLASSPATH which get picked up by JobClient, JobTracker is able to honor the addition.

> Key: HADOOP-6695
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-6695
> Project: Hadoop Common
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: conf
> Affects Versions: 0.20.1
> Reporter: Ted Yu
>
> When I tried to run HBase export in cluster mode, I copied zookeeper-3.2.1.jar to hadoop lib directory.
> But initial attempts failed with java.lang.ClassNotFoundException because job tracker wasn't restarted.
> It is desirable for job tracker to pick up new classpath without restarting which is sometimes hard to do in production environment.
