[jira] Commented: (MAPREDUCE-979) JobConf.getMemoryFor{Map|Reduce}Task doesn't fallback to newer config knobs when mapred.taskmaxvmem is set to DISABLED_MEMORY_LIMIT of -1

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MAPREDUCE-979?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12755342#action_12755342 ] 

Hemanth Yamijala commented on MAPREDUCE-979:
--------------------------------------------

To be clear, mapred-default in hadoop is updated to not have mapred.task.maxvmem. However, M/R applications like PIG could bundle their own mapred-default which, if not updated, would break.

> JobConf.getMemoryFor{Map|Reduce}Task doesn't fallback to newer config knobs when mapred.taskmaxvmem is set to DISABLED_MEMORY_LIMIT of -1, this results in failed job-submissions when mapred-default.xml has the default value of -1.
