[jira] [Commented] (OOZIE-949) Allow the user to set 'mapred.job.name'

["Alejandro Abdelnur (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OOZIE-949?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13468795#comment-13468795 ] 

Alejandro Abdelnur commented on OOZIE-949:
------------------------------------------

James, I've just noticed that launcher job will also get the same name as the real job, this may be confusing for users and they will not know which one is their job and which one is the launcher.

I'm thinking that 'mapred.job.name' should only set the job name of the real job, the action. And we should not override the launcher job name.
